39. Notes that the impact of Indian growth on global demand for energy raises concerns for energy security; notes that India still suffers severe energy shortages and is over-dependent on oil and coal, both expensive and polluting fossil fuels; notes that India's efforts to secure gas supplies and develop nuclear energy are two concrete results of this state of affairs; notes that even if India did develop nuclear energy, it would meet less than 5% of its electricity and only 2% of its total energy requirements; considers that efforts to develop nuclear energy would also be a climbdown from the Gleneagles G8 pledges to halt climate c ...[+++]hange and promote energy conservation; considers that, if not reversed, environmental degradation threatens to become a major impediment to India's future economic development;

NUCLEAR SAFETY IN THE CONTEXT OF THE ELECTRICITY SECTOR IN CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPE AND IN THE CIS Following a discussion of nuclear safety and related energy supply needs in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe and in the EC, the Council adopted the following conclusions: "THE COUNCIL, reaffirming its commitment to assist with improving nuclear safety in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe and the CIS, and its awareness of the need to pursue such improvements within the framework of sustainable medium and long term energy strategies for those countries; 1. recalls the Council conclusions of 7 December 1992 and of 25 Ju ...[+++]ne 1993 and notes the Commission report on "Community assistance in the energy sector to the countries of Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union"; notes the report submitted to it and to the European Parliament by the Commission on 9 December 1993 under the title "Nuclear safety in the context of the electricity sector in Central and Eastern Europe and the CIS"; 2. urges the Commission and the Member States, in the framework of their ongoing co-operation with the countries concerned and, in particular, in appropriate international fora; - to prevail on the governments concerned to agree to the earliest practical closure of the less safe reactors that cannot be upgraded to adequate standards of safety at a reasonable cost, - to press for the achievement of safety levels for new nuclear power plants and for those maintained in service, equivalent to those in practice in the European Union, - to seek actively the development of independent nuclear safety authorities enjoying adequate means and resources in order to ensure their effective operation, and - to promote the development and implementation of adequate safeguards and controls of nuclear materials and installations. 3. supports, through the relevant European Union and Member States' means taking into account the wider energy situation and the individual charac ...

That the Senate of Canada urge the Governor in Council not to give final approval to the project submitted by the consortium that proposed the Maritime and Northeast Pipeline Project until the Government of Canada has fulfilled its obligation to hold full and fair hearings on the proposals submitted by all interested parties, including the TransMaritime Pipeline Proposal, considering the following: (a) the natural resources of Canada are the property of all Canadians; (b) the needs and interests of Canadians should be considered first and foremost in the exploitation, development and use of Canada's natural resources; (c) the recommend ...[+++]ed Maritime and Northeast Pipeline proposal overwhelmingly favours American interests over the interests of Canadians by channelling 83% of the natural gas extracted from the Sable Offshore Energy Project to the United States, while a mere 17% will be allocated to only two Canadian provinces, Nova Scotia and southern New Brunswick; (d) the TransMaritime pipeline proposal places the interests of Canadians first by allocating 64% of the Sable Offshore natural gas to four Canadian provinces, including 34% to Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, as opposed to a total volume of only 36% to the United States; (e) the TransMaritime proposal allows the provinces of Ontario and Quebec to benefit from any natural gas from the Sable Offshore Energy Project; (f) the TransMaritime Pipeline proposal offers support for Canadian industry and security of energy supplies for central Canada, and offers more Canadians a greater supply of natural gas at a lower cost; (g) the TransMaritime Pipeline proposal generates employment opportunities and provides long-term benefits to disadvantaged northern New Brunswick; (h) the TransMaritime Pipeline proposal will unite Canada, since it sends a positive message of inclusion, security, opportunity, and sharing within the Confederation, to Canadians in four provinces, including Acadians, Quebecers and francophone O ...
