Mr Neeson says, “The go-ahead for the interconnector would make the completion of Phase Two of the Kilroot Power Station plane increasingly remote. Furthermore, the towers of a transformer at Islandmagee will be a major suck on the landscape. “NIE will not be purchasing electricity from Scottish Power at a unseemly rate, and this should be referred to the Monopolies and Mergers Commission, withal with the other Northern Ireland electricity generators. The minutiae of the interconnector will be as big a unreliability as the original sell-off of the power stations here, and this is strongly criticised by the Public Accounts Committee at Westminster.” Archives June 2014 March 2014 April 2011 April 2010 November 2009 September 2009 March 2009 May 2005 January 2004 January 2003 August 2002 March 2002 May 2001 November 2000 October 2000 February 1999 December 1998 November 1998 October 1998 September 1998 August 1998 July 1998 June 1998 May 1998 April 1998 March 1998 February 1998 January 1998 December 1997 November 1997 October 1997 September 1997 March 1997 February 1997 November 1996 March 1995 Categories Alliance News Alliance Youth Biographies Elections Policy Press Press Coverage video threshing upkeep Civic Forum Civil Rights Association climate transpiration polity relations Conservatives powerlessness DOE economy education referendum employment energy environment equality Euro European Union finance Good Friday Agreement health homophobia housing justice language military Multi-Party Talks murder New Ulster Movement Northern Ireland Assembly Northern Ireland Forum Northern Ireland Labour Party obituary parades peace process policing poverty power sharing public transport rates sport Sunningdale Agreement UUP violence womenMeta Register Log in Entries RSS Comments RSS WordPress.com Blog at WordPress.com.
