§ Mr. FlynnTo ask the President of the Board of Trade if he will have powers to require the publication by the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority of safety reports dealing with radiological risk to the public, under the new arrangements for oversight of the nuclear programme.
§ Mr. EggarMy right hon. Friend has the same powers as those previously held by the Secretary of State for Energy. It has been UKAEA's practice over a number of years to issue reports annually on the radiological effect of its operations. This information is given both in a safety report and in a report on the Radioactive Waste Disposal by AEA Establishments. I am arranging for copies of the latest reports to be placed in the Library of the House.
