In January, we announced that the National Radiological Protection Board report on radon would be published later in the year. That report was published this morning. Copies of it have been provided to the Library of the House. The Under-Secretary, my hon. Friend the Member for Hertsmere (Mr. Clappison) has written to hon. Members with a direct interest enclosing a comprehensive briefing pack. Copies have also been sent to affected local authorities.
