HC Deb 12 April 1984 vol 58 cc356-7W
Mr. Wilson

asked the Secretary of State for Defence if he will publish data to show the extent of radioactive fallout in the area of G1 monitoring station No. 5 near Fitzroy Crossing, for the period 16 to 23 May 1956 after the atmospheric nuclear explosion carried out by the United Kingdom at the Monte Bello Islands.

Mr. Pattie

I refer the hon. Gentleman to the answer I gave to him on 28 March, at columns 209–10. For further information on the radioactive fallout in Australia during Operation Mosaic he should refer to "The Australian Journal of Science", volume 20, No. 5, page 125, published on 21 December 1957.
