Nationals Senator Matt Canavan says nuclear energy is the “cleanest form of power generation” around.
Mr Canavan’s comments come as the Coalition pushes for nuclear energy to be implemented in Australia while the Labor government rules out support for it.
“Nuclear power plants are beautiful things, they look wonderful,” Mr Canavan told Sky News Australia.
“They’re very, very clean.
“It’s the most cleanest form of power generation around, it’s one of the safest forms of power generation around.”
