Dear Nicola Willis,

In a press release you issued jointly with Mr Jones yesterday, the following statement is made:

“Modelled scenarios indicate that it is highly unlikely we would ever get to Phase 3 or 4 of the Fuel Response Plan"

Please provide copies of all the modelled scenarios referred to, including - for each scenario - the assumptions made in developing each scenario and the full list of expected results from each scenario, including any second and third order results arising..

I am sure you appreciate the considerable public interest in knowing the factual basis for the stated conclusion that "it is highly unlikely we would ever get to Phase 3 or 4 of the Fuel Response Plan".
