HC Deb 19 May 1965 vol 712 c252W
Mr. George Y. Mackie

asked the Minister of Technology if he will make a statement on the future of the Atomic Energy Authority establishment at Dounreay.

Mr. Cousins

The main work of the Dounreay Experimental Reactor Establishment is at present the development of fast reactors. The current programme is likely to keep the establishment heavily occupied for several years. Since the content of future programmes will depend largely on the results of current research, it is not possible to foresee the long-term future.
