To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what statutory or voluntary arrangements are made for the operators responsible for the plutonium flights from Carlisle to inform his Department of the timing and routing of the flights; what is the date and route of the next plutonium flight from Carlisle; and if he will make a statement.
