Preparation work is set to start on a controversial new nuclear reactor at Hinkley Point after compromises were reached with EDF Energy to reduce the impact on the local area.

Sedgemoor Council says nearly 90 conditions have been placed on the firm's proposals.

They include allowing the authority, as well as Somerset and West Somerset councils, a say on how a four million contribution from EDF is set aside for local housing, skills and training, IF the main build goes ahead.
