HC Deb 05 December 1956 vol 561 c1242
45. Mr. Mason

asked the Lord Privy Seal to what extent the Atomic Energy Authority is giving consideration to the building of atomic energy package stations.

The Lord Privy Seal (Mr. R. A. Butler)

The Authority is examining a number of advanced reactor systems, some of which may be particularly suitable for development on a small scale; but none is likely to reach the stage of commercial use for some time.
