HC Deb 16 December 1985 vol 89 c30W

Mr. Ashdown asked the Secretary of State for Energy if he will describe any precautionary measures taken at other nuclear power stations following the site incident at Hinckley Point nuclear power station on 29 November; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Goodlad

The CEGB has confirmed its continuing full compliance with its statutory duty to maintain safe working conditions at all times, and has advised me that the Hinckley Point B incident on 29 November has no implications for any of its other nuclear power stations, which do not have gas circulators of the same design.
