§ Mr. Pentlandasked the Parliamentary Secretary for Science if he will state the total production of uranium metal fuel elements for commercial nuclear power 176W stations in 1962, giving exports and internal requirements of British nuclear power stations separately.
§ Mr. Denzil FreethI am advised that in the calendar year 1962, the Atomic Energy Authority manufactured 670 tons of uranium metal fuel elements for commercial nuclear power stations. Three hundred tons were for the station, designed by British firms, which recently came into operation at Latina in Italy. The rest was for three nuclear power stations in the United Kingdom programme at Berkeley, Bradwell and Hinkley Point.
