Mr. Clay

asked the Prime Minister when she will reply to letters sent to her on 9 January and 21 April from Mr. Ken McGinley, chairman of the British Nuclear Test Veterans Association, asking if she will set up a full judicial inquiry into the current health of British service men who took part in nuclear tests between 1952 and 1958; and if she will make a statement.

Mr. Norman Lamont

The Prime Minister has asked me, as the appropriate Defence Minister, to reply to both letters from Mr. McGinley. A reply to his letter of 9 January was sent on 29 January and I have today replied to his letter of 21 April.
