§ Mr. ChaytorTo ask the President of the Board of Trade what assessment is made of the likely incidence of sham recovery, as defined by the Radioactive Waste Management Advisory Committee, in its October 1997 report on the import and export of radioactive waste, when considering application from nuclear reprocessors to import spent nuclear fuel. [28468]
§ Mr. BattleThe UK has no facilities for the direct disposal of spent nuclear fuel and therefore "sham recovery", as defined by the Radioactive Waste Management Advisory Committee, is not a practical option.
