HC Deb 28 June 1995 vol 262 c732W
Mr. Llew Smith

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment how often the Health and Safety Executive has met to oversee the safety of nuclear weapons and military production or propulsion matters since 1992; if he will list the specific areas covered; and if he will place in the Library copies of unclassified versions of any reports, guidance or recommendations produced by the executive arising from these meetings.

Mr. Oppenheim

Since 1992 the Health and Safety Executive has discussed health and safety matters relating to activities at the Atomic Weapons Establishment premises during seven of its regular programmed meetings. Information on the specific areas covered in the course of those meetings is exempt from the code of practice on access to Government information (Exemption 2—Internal discussion and advice).

Two unclassified documents relating to health and safety at Atomic Weapons Establishment premises, "The Management of Health and Safety at Atomic Weapons Establishment premises—A Review by the Health and Safety Executive Part 1—An overview" and "Part 2 Detailed Findings", are already available in the Library.
