“To realise CO2-reduction and decrease dependence for the energy supply, more nuclear energy is necessary. Applications for license for new build for one or more nuclear power plants that meet the requirements will be granted. CO2 sequestration can take place, provided strict security measures are in place and there is local public support. This underground CO2 storage will only be permitted, when a license for new build of a nuclear power plant has been granted.” Extract of the Coalition agreement of the new Dutch government that took office on 14 October headed by Prime Minister, Mark Rutte
