Clean Energy Act

[Peter]

I would like to know your reasoning behind making Nuclear a hazardous or Non-Renewable Power Source?

I would have though that Chernobyl would have been a pretty good justification, though that was more due to safety lapses on the part of the Russians, it showed just how lethal nuclear energy can be when mishandled.

[Peter]

All of the above is most certainly true, but if there were to be a nuclear accident (which despite its improbability is still a possibility) has the potential to have the long term effects of killing millions. That sounds quite hazardous to me.

[Peter]

Could you please clarify clause 1:

Is it $100 million a year for 20 years or a $5 million a year for 20 years.

As a general point, could people be specific when proposing legislation that appropriates money for a number of years as to whether the appropriation is a total for all the years, or is a per year figure.

[Peter]

With five yeas and one nay, this bill has passed.

I made it 6-2-0 - there are votes on the previous page. Its immaterial though.

[Peter]

Override vote on the vetoing of this bill.
