HC Deb 01 December 1947 vol 445 c21W
96. Major Vernon

asked the Minister of Supply if he is aware that the A.S.P. Chemical Company of Gerrards Cross claims to be preparing radio active isotopes from materials of common occurrences in this country; and if he can give an assurance that this firm is working under his direction and within the framework of the Atomic Energy Act.

Mr. G. R. Strauss

Yes. The claims of this company have been brought to my notice. The company is not working under my direction, but I am not aware that it is infringing any provision of the Atomic Energy Act, 1946.
