of energy is essential for the life and eco­ nomic survival of our country, but ener- : gy. sources are in decline. By the year


2020 80% of the gas supply will have to be imported. ; The contribution of nuclear power has


- fallen from 30% to 20% of energy sup- ; ply and will fall further unless new reac-: tors are built. Goal fired power stations: are being s h u t down and we will lose half th eir generating capacity, within


, five years. In addition there is growing global competition for oil (a t least until recent months!). There are growing conr cerns a b o u t en v iro nm en ta l damage related to fossil fuels. He said th e su p p lie rs of energy in'
