HC Deb 21 February 1968 vol 759 cc154-5W
Mr. Eadie

asked the Minister of Power what nuclear power stations have been involved in having to discontinue generating either partly or fully because of technical difficulty during the last 10 years; and if he will list the stations and the estimated cost that was involved.

Mr. Marsh

There have been no technical breakdowns at nuclear generating stations of a kind which cast doubt on the reliability of nuclear stations as compared with conventional. Breakdowns at particular power stations are matters of day-to-day management and if my hon. Friend requires further details he should write to the C.E.G.B.
