Liberals going through a ‘very exhaustive process’ in relation to nuclear power

Shadow Foreign Affairs Minister Simon Birmingham says the Liberals have been going through a “very exhaustive process” in relation to nuclear power. “There have been numerous briefings and opportunities for members to be engaged in terms of discussion and understanding of the options there and that policy will have continued to be worked upon and released at the right time,” Mr Birmingham told Sky News Australia. “The substance here will most importantly be one about ensuring that we have the most credible pathway using the best technologies available to get to net zero by 2050 and to do so in ways that ensure Australia’s industrial underpinnings and electricity markets can operate with reliability and affordability for users.”
