HC Deb 17 December 1986 vol 107 c580W
28. Mr. Cohen

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what assessment he has made of the level of pollution caused by the recent accidental release of radioactivity into the Irish sea from Sellafield; and what representations he has received on this matter.

Mr. Waldegrave

There are no environmental or radiological implications from the incident at Sellafield on 27 November 1986. The only representations I have received were in the form of a question to which an answer is being sent.

49. Mr. D. E. Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he has any plans to meet his Irish and Norwegian counterparts to discuss the radioactive contamination of the Irish Sea by the plant at Sellafield.

Mr. Waldegrave

I have received no request from either the Irish or the Norwegian Ministers for such a meeting.
