To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, whether his Department has any plans to ensure that nuclear fuel for the nuclear reactors at (a) Hinkley Point C, (b) Bradwell B and (c) Wylfa Newydd is manufactured in the UK.

Sourcing of fuel for new nuclear power stations is a matter for the project developers. The Government engages regularly with the developers on their supply chain plans as we seek to maximise UK economic benefit arising from the projects; this includes fuel manufacturing.
