CEZ Temelin project: will it ever happen? | beyondbrics:

"

A new Czech government is in the final stages of being formed, but its make-up will probably mean further delays at the very least for the state utility CEZ’s costly nuclear tender.

Czech President Milos Zeman is expected on November 21 to give a mandate to Bohuslav Sobotka, head of the Czech Social Democratic Party (CSSD), which won the inconclusive parliamentary election in October, to form the next government. Sobotka has already started talks with the big winner of the election, the new ANO 2011 party founded by Slovak-born billionaire Andrej Babis, and the centrist Christian Democrats (KDU-CSL).

Jan Mladek, a CSSD heavyweight and possible member of the new cabinet that should be in place by the end of 2013, tells beyondbrics that out of the nine working groups put together by the possible coalition partners, eight have reached “a lot agreement”, though the crucial one on taxes and the budget is still far from a deal."
