answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/02/2024 answer text <p>Moorside is a candidate for new nuclear and one of a number of potential sites that could host civil nuclear projects. Whilst Great British Nuclear is working with government to support access to potential sites, no decisions have been made at present. In the case of Moorside, it would be natural for the site’s location adjacent to Sellafield to be factored into any decision.</p> answering member constituency West Aberdeenshire and Kincardine answering member printed Andrew Bowie question first answered 29/02/2024 07:19:47 answering member 4601 label Biography information for Andrew Bowie

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/02/2024 answer text <p>There is currently no project at Moorside, but any new developer will need to meet the requirements of our independent regulators. The Government’s Nuclear Roadmap has set out plans to streamline future nuclear development to make Britian the best place in the world to invest in nuclear. We believe the existing EN-6 sites, such as Moorside, are likely to retain inherent positive attributes that make them suitable for consideration for development.</p> answering member constituency West Aberdeenshire and Kincardine answering member printed Andrew Bowie question first answered 29/02/2024 11:44:29 answering member 4601 label Biography information for Andrew Bowie

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/02/2024 answer text <p>Hinkley Point C (HPC) is not a government project and so the Department has not assessed economic impact. EDF have advised that 19,250 job opportunities have been created on site so far and £5.3bn spent directly with companies in the South West. Further, EDF state that 3,700 UK businesses are in the HPC supply chain and that 22,000 people across the UK are working on the project.</p> answering member constituency West Aberdeenshire and Kincardine answering member printed Andrew Bowie question first answered 26/02/2024 07:00:47 answering member 4601 label Biography information for Andrew Bowie
