HC Deb 17 January 1978 vol 942 cc150-1W
Mrs. Winifred Ewing

asked the Secretary of State for Employment what information he has about health hazards in uranium mining operations.

Mr. John Grant

There is no firsthand information about health hazards from mining uranium in the United Kingdom since it is not yet mined here. I have asked the Chairman of the Health and Safety Commission to arrange for the hon. Member to be provided with the requisite information relating to experience in other countries.
