HC Deb 23 January 1968 vol 757 cc76-7W
85. Mr. Eadie

asked the Minister of Power in what area of the United Kingdom two research nuclear reactors were dismantled; how long it took; and what was the cost.

Mr. Freeson

Three research reactors licensed by my right hon. Friend have been dismantled, of which two were afterwards rebuilt elsewhere. The locations were Slough, Aldermaston, and East London. The respective dismantling times were 1½ months, 6 months and 3 months. This was private expenditure, so I cannot give costs but I understand the sums involved were small.
