The subject of nuclear power is one of the most politically controversial in contemporary Britain. The proposal by the Central Electricity Generating Board to seek ministerial consent for Britain's first American-designed pressurized water reactor at Sizewell B near Aldeburgh, Suffolk, caused probably the most contentious national energy decision in recent years.
