PARIS, September 12 (Reuters) - EDF EDF.PA will again have to consult the Central Works Council (CCE) on the construction of two EPR reactors in the context of the Hinkley Point project in England, the CCE announced Wednesday in a statement .

The CCE appealed to the courts in June 2016 to request the submission of additional information on this major project.

A court of appeal was right, saying that EDF had not communicated to staff representatives "objective, accurate and complete information up to the technical and financial issues raised by the project HPC" and therefore had them not allowed "to give a reasoned opinion on this project," writes the CCE in a statement.

The court ordered EDF to inform the staff representatives of the full project risk analysis report within one month and asked management to consult the EAC again within two months. adds the latter.

It was not possible to contact EDF immediately
