Select Committee on Public Accounts Minutes of Evidence


Letter from the Permanent Secretary, Department of Trade and Industry, to the Committee

  In advance of Monday's PAC hearing into the British Energy restructuring I would like to bring to your attention the statement in Wednesday's Budget Report regarding British Energy, namely that the Government will: "consider selling part of its stake in British Energy after completion of the Energy Review". If there were a sale, any proceeds would go into the Nuclear Liabilities Fund to meet British Energy's liabilities.
