The Government's Energy Bill, which is due for its second reading in the House of Commons this week, may breach European Commission rules on state aid.

We sought expert legal opinion on the bill, which was designed to establish the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA). The NDA was meant to oversee the UK's radioactive waste problem, but its remit has already been extended - before it even exists - to bail out private nuclear companies.
