§ 37. Dr. John Cunninghamasked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry when he expects to receive the report of the Nuclear Inspectorate on the recent radiation leak at the Windscale factory of British Nuclear Fuels Limited; whether 5W the report will be published in full; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. Tom BoardmanMy inspectors are still inquiring into the circumstances of the incident of 26th September last. The cause of the incident has not yet been established. It may be several months before the investigations are completed. At that time I will consider whether a report should be published and if it will be useful to make a statement.
