HC Deb 14 May 1969 vol 783 c222W
64. Mr. William Hamilton

asked the Minister of Technology what progress has been made on the sale of a steam generating heavy water power station to Greece; and to what extent the agreement is dependent on the British purchase of Greek tobacco.

Mr. Fowler

An agreement has been signed with the approval of the British and Greek Governments which provides that U.K.A.E.A. and the Public Power Corporation of Athens will negotiate a contract for the sale of a nuclear power station to Greece, and that, in parallel, a separate contract will be negotiated for the supply to Britain of Greek tobacco.
