Lord Douglas-Miller (Con)
My noble friend will be aware that the Government have committed north of £5 billion for flooding and coastal erosion. We are now half way through that programme. I will write to my noble friend specifically about the Norfolk coast.
Lord West of Spithead (Lab)
My Lords, does that Minister agree that, with the need to cut emissions and the growth in the amount of power that our nation requires, there is a real need to speed up the provision of nuclear power to ensure that we have green energy?
Lord Douglas-Miller (Con)
I entirely agree with the noble Lord.
