asked the Secretary of State for Energy pursuant to his reply to the hon. Member for Berwick-upon-Tweed, (Mr. Beith) on 27 November, Official Report, column 302, if he will state what proportion of the total low-level nuclear waste arising from electricity board magnox reprocessing at Sellafield is accounted for by the 12,200 cubic metres referred to in his answer.

Solid low level radioactive waste attributable to the reprocessing of spent Magnox nuclear fuel from Italy and Japan accounts for less than 10 per cent. of the total solid low level wastes attributable to date to magnox reprocessing by BNFL.
