§ Llew SmithTo ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs if she will request from her German counterpart papers produced on(a) the BMU Radiation Safety Commission and (b) Reactor Safety Commission relating to environmental safety matters concerning British Radioactive waste and nuclear facilities handling imported German nuclear materials. [3948]
§ Mr. WilsonI have been asked to reply.
I do not intend requesting such documents. The Department is not aware of these papers and would not expect to receive documents produced by or for German regulatory authorities. The UK's independent nuclear regulators meet with their German counterpart organisations in a number of international fora and bring to each others' attention issues of mutual interest.
