HC Deb 06 June 1984 vol 61 c169W
Mr. Skinner

asked the Secretary of State for Energy what information he has as to the number of partially-built nuclear power stations that have been cancelled in the United States of America during the last five years.

Mr. Giles Shaw

The latest available published information from the US Department of Energy ("Nuclear Plant Cancellations: Causes, Costs, and Consequences" (April 1983)) states that 18 nuclear units on which construction had started were cancelled in the period 1979 to 1982.
