HC Deb 20 July 1982 vol 28 c123W
Mr. Cryer

asked the Secretary of State for Defence what is the cost of the modified proposals for the new uranium enrichment plant at Capenhurst, Cheshire; and what agreement covers the final processing to highly enriched uranium in the United States.

Mr. Pattie

It would not be in the interests of security to disclose the cost of this programme. The services needed for the final processing to highly enriched uranium in the United State will be made available under the terms of the 1958 United States-United Kingdom agreement for co-operation in the uses of atomic energy for mutual defence purposes.
