Parliamentary and Scientific Committee Meeting on Nuclear Energy

Three speakers, Malcolm Grimston, Robin Grimes and myself gave presentations on why the UK needs nuclear energy, the research challenges and the benefits of nuclear research to the UK and how UK nuclear universities are meeting the human resources challenges. A short debate followed in Portcullis House but the main debate occurred over dinner in the Palace of Westminster. Current and ex Members of Parliament and other members of the P&S Committee had a very broad ranging, interesting and entertaining debate chaired by Andrew Miller MP.
