§ Mr. Dodsworthasked the Secretary of State for Energy what is his estimate of the likely stockpiling of plutonium 381W resulting from reprocessing nuclear waste in Great Britain over the next 10 years.
§ Mr. EadieOn the basis of an annual throughput of 1,450 tonnes annually at Windscale, about 25 tonnes of plutonium would be produced, over 10 years. This would be stockpiled, except so far as it was required for use for approved purposes—for example, for fuel fabrication.
