Not in my backyard: Liberals, Nationals go cold on nuclear
Twelve opposition MPs have publicly backed lifting the moratorium on nuclear power in Australia but will not commit to hosting a nuclear power plant in their own electorate.
The Coalition is expected to release key details of its nuclear power policy before the federal budget in May. It supports lifting the moratorium implemented by the Howard government in 1998 and the introduction of small modular reactors and large-scale nuclear reactors.
