Answered by Stephen Gethins on 20 Jul 2026 · 18 days after it was lodged, on time

The Scottish Government has had no discussions with the UK Government regarding the findings of its technical report.The report is a high-level technical desktop study about the in-principle suitability of sites in Scotland.It provides no new information or evidence that would change the Government’s long-standing opposition to the development of new nuclear power stations in Scotland.
