§ 23. Mr. Simon HughesTo ask the President of the Board of Trade what assessment he has made of the implications of the recent announcement of the part-privatisation of the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority for the nuclear industry's future.
§ Mr. EggarThe AEA provides services to the nuclear industry and to a wide range of non-nuclear customers. I believe that privatisation will lead to a greater cost-effectiveness and better value for money for all the AEA's customers.
