§ Mr. AtkinsHer Majesty's inspectorate of pollution is investigating the origins of the depleted uranium swarf found in a field at Poplar farm, Chelveston, Northamptonshire.

However, the investigation is continuing and at this stage it would be premature to release information until all the evidence has been fully substantiated and future action decided.
