Hinkley Point deal 'risky and expensive bbc.com

The case for a new £18bn nuclear power plant is "marginal", says the National Audit Office.UK government plans for a new £18bn nuclear power station have come under fire from public auditors, who call it "a risky and expensive project".
The case for the Hinkley Point C plant in Somerset was "marginal" and the deal was "not value for money", according to the National Audit Office (NAO).
The NAO said the government had not sufficiently considered the costs and risks for consumers.
The government said building the plant was an "important strategic decision".
The report comes nine months after the government granted final approval for the project, which is being financed by the French and Chinese governments.
