HC Deb 30 June 1975 vol 894 c308W
34. Mr. Palmer

asked the Secretary of State for Energy if he will make a statement on the revised timetable for the design, construction and commissioning of the first steam generating heavy water nuclear reactor.

Mr. Eadie

The timetable on SGHWR is a matter for the National Nuclear Corporation, together with the electricity boards. NNC is preparing a reference design on the basis of which it will carry forward work, including component development, to establish a firm proposal for a design and timetable for construction of the nuclear steam supply systems.
