What people say
Craig Kelly
“Nuclear power has to be in (Australia’s energy) mix. If we are fair dinkum and say we need to cut CO2 emissions,
we have to look at nuclear”
Craig Kelly, Member of the Parliament of Australia (source: dailymail.co.uk, 15 March 2017)
Jean-Pol Poncelet
“The recent decision of the European Commission on the Paks II project is good news for the whole industry and sends a positive signal for future nuclear investments in Europe”
Jean-Pol Poncelet, FORATOM Director General (source: foratom.org, 14 March 2017)
Berta Picamal
“There are two types of concern that Brexit could bring for the nuclear industry: restrictions on the movement of goods, people, skills; and replacing the Euratom inspection regime to safeguard nuclear materials, which is an absolutely priority”
Berta Picamal, Executive Advisor to the Director General, FORATOM (source: energypost.com, 10 April 2017)
