Mr Robert Adley (Christchurch): To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what representations he has received from Hong Kong about the Daya Bay power station project; and if he will make a statement.

No W18

MR TIM RENTON

We have received no representations.

We have, however,

been following very closely the expressions of concern in

Hong Kong about the project. We recognise that the people

of Hong Kong will wish to be reassured of the safety of the

Daya Bay plant. There are a number of initiatives under

way to ensure that they are kept informed about the safety

measures to be adopted.
