HC Deb 14 November 1989 vol 160 c140W
Mr. Dobson

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy what information on the costs of advance gas-cooled reactors become available after the July announcement of the decision not to privatise the Magnox stations.

Mr. Wakeham

National Power informed us of indicative prices and outline contract terms it was seeking for the sale of electricity from the AGRs during confidential discussions. As I made clear in my statement of 9 November at columns 1175–76, these were unacceptable.
