West Somerset Council excluded from key Hinkley C nuclear meeting.

Bridgwater Mercury 12th Feb 2018, West Somerset Council not invited to key Hinkley C meeting. WSC was
‘unaware’ of a meeting in which the leader of Sedgemoor District
Council (SDC) travelled to Westminster to discuss uncertainty over Hinkley
C money with senior officials. Cllr Duncan McGinty met with MP Jake Berry,
parliamentary undersecretary for Housing, Communities and Local Government
to discuss the uncertainty surrounding ‘Community Benefit’ funding for
Sedgemoor and West Somerset from Hinkley C.

Councillor McGinty said: “It was a really positive meeting. Sedgemoor has taken the lead in raising this
issue at a national level. But while Hinkley C falls within West Somerset,
the district council was not invited to send a representative.
