HC Deb 21 October 1993 vol 230 c302W
Mr. Milligan

To ask the President of the Board of Trade what financial target and capital expenditure limit have been set for the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority for 1993–94.

Mr. Eggar

The United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority's financial target for 1993–94 has been set as a 12.1 per cent. return on average capital employed, calculated according to the current cost convention. The target is based on the profit earned on ordinary activities before long-term interest is payable. I have also approved the AEA's capital expenditure programme for the year at £18.9 million.
