UK considers state backing for nuclear, says report
UK government ministers are "wrangling over how to support" new nuclear power plant projects, with some senior members of the Treasury "hostile" to direct state subsidy, according to the Financial Times. Philip Hammond, chancellor of the exchequer, and Greg Clark, business secretary, have both taken part in talks over support for new plants in Anglesey and in Cumbria, the British newspaper says, citing unnamed sources.http://www.world-nuclear-news.org/NP-UK-considers-state-backing-for-nuclear-says-report-13021701.html
