Euratom Supply Agency

Ian Hudghton (Verts/ALE ) - I voted against the Jordan Cizelj report on the Euratom Supply Agency. I consider that the Agency should be independent of Euratom as the roles of promoting nuclear energy and controlling it should not in effect be joined.

The nuclear industry does not offer the solution for Europe’s energy needs. Europe must strive to make more of our renewable energy potential and work to phase out the need for nuclear.
