Viktor Orbán discussed the issue of the Paks nuclear plant at the parliament's plenary session.
The Hungarian Prime Minister will appoint a minister without portfolio to oversee and review the Paks nuclear power plant project. Viktor Orbán announced this at the plenary session of the parliament. He answered to a question by Bernadett Szél, MP of the opposition party LMP. She asked why a referendum is not being held on the issue of Paks.
According to the Prime Minister the ruling parties have laid their cards on the table, and he argued that the agreement underlying the Paks project was already concluded before the 2014 parliamentary elections. Therefore, he observed, no one can say that they were not familiar with the Fidesz/ KDNP government’s energy policy.
