§ Lord Kennetasked Her Majesty's Government:
Whether, further to the reply of the noble Baroness, Lady Chalker of Wallasey, of 8 March, (WA 24) they will elaborate the "potential proliferation risk" that they envisage in the construction by Russian companies of nuclear power stations in Iran of the type approved for construction in North Korea.
§ Baroness Chalker of Wallasey:We are concerned that the Iranians might seek to use nuclear expertise acquired through the construction and operation of the Russian-supplied reactor for military purposes.
