HC Deb 17 June 1976 vol 913 c239W
Mr. Ronald Atkins

asked the Secretary of State for Energy what is his estimate of the effect of the slow rate of new discoveries of uranium on the rate of expansion of the nuclear power industry; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Benn

So far as the United Kingdom is concerned I am advised that the development of our nuclear programmes will not be impeded by shortages of uranium.
