§ Mr. RendelTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence what evidence he has of nuclear contamination at the former airbase, RAF Greenham Common.
§ Mr. SoamesThere is no evidence that RAF Greenham Common contains any nuclear contamination attributable to its former military use. The Defence Radiological Protection Service recently undertook an environmental radioactivity survey of the site. The levels of radioactivity present were similar to those prevailing throughout the United Kingdom.
