§ Mr. MorganTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence what has been the percentage production outside the Trident warhead programme by value at the Atomic Weapons Establishment, Llanishen, Cardiff, in each of the last 10 years.
§ Mr. FreemanFigures for each of the last 10 years could not be produced without disproportionate effort. During the period 1984 to date, however, somewhat less than half the output of the Atomic Weapons Establishment, Llanishen, Cardiff has been related to the Trident programme. The balance of capacity has been allocated to other nuclear work save for 5 to 10 per cent. which consisted of work, primarily high-precision machining, undertaken on behalf of commercial customers.
