Mr. Meadowcroft

asked the Secretary of State for Energy if he will detail what specific organisational and technical appraisals have been made of the methodology of determining the risks of an accident at a nuclear installation in the United Kingdom; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Goodlad

I shall reply to the hon. Member as soon as possible.

Mr. Meadowcroft

asked the Secretary of State for Energy what studies have been commissioned by his Department to assess the relevance of safety problems with the graphic moderated plutonium production reactors of Calder Hall and Chapel Cross, in the light of the discovery of safety problems with the United States Department of Energy nuclear reactor at Hanford.

Mr. Goodlad

I refer the hon. Member to the answer that I gave to the hon. Member for Yeovil (Mr. Ashdown) on 6 November 1986 at column546.
