HC Deb 19 October 1989 vol 158 cc218-9W
Dr. Thomas

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy for how many individual facilities at BNFL Sellafield have(a) a facility attachment and (b) particular safeguards provisions been completed, in conjunction with (a) Euratom and (b) the International Atomic Energy Agency; when such arrangements were entered into force for each facility; and for what time period the arrangements are in force.

Mr. Michael Spicer

Four particular safeguard provisions for facilities at BNFL Sellafield are currently in force and will continue indefinitely. A further four are very close to implementation. The remainder are in various stages of consultation.

A facility attachment for one facility at Sellafield was agreed in 1980 and discussions have recently taken place on facility attachments for two other facilities.
