THE Senate has backed South Australia’s royal commission into expanding the nuclear industry.

SA Premier Jay Weatherill launched a royal commission to investigate if the state, home to world’s largest uranium deposits, should embrace production, enrichment and storage of nuclear power.

SA Family First senator Bob Day won enough Senate support to formally welcome the commission, with his motion passing 34 to 33.
