Dr. ThomasTo ask the Secretary of State for Energy how many kilogrammes of safeguarded plutonium have been exported; to which commercial operators in which countries on which dates, for each year since 1979; and which exports involved sales and which leasing arrangements.
§ Mr. Michael SpicerI refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave him on 17 January 1989 at column157. Detailed information relating to the quantities of plutonium exported to individual operators and countries, and the frequency and nature of shipments, cannot be revealed for reasons of security and commercial sensitivity.
