As a matter of policy the UK Government does not publish its correspondence with the European Commission in relation to State aid. In addition, it would not be appropriate to publish all the documents because they contain commercially confidential information.

The European Commission announced its decision in relation to the Hinkley Point C State aid case on 8 October 2014:
