HC Deb 19 December 1975 vol 902 c898W
Mr. Viggers

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether low-activity radioactive waste is deposited on all ordinary refuse sites or only on some.

Mr. Denis Howell

Low-activity radioactive waste may be disposed of on any ordinary refuse disposal site. If special precautions are necessary, disposal is subject to approval by my Department's Radio-chemical Inspectorate after consultation with the waste disposal authority concerned.

Mr. Viggers

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will list the refuse sites upon which low-activity radioactive waste is deposited.

Mr. Denis Howell

I will write to the hon. Member.
