§ The Prime MinisterSince January 2001 I have received over 187,000 letters and cards, including a very large number of pre-printed postcards as a result of a campaign organised in Ireland in April and May 2002. I have also had discussions with the Prime Ministers of Norway and Ireland about Sellafield issues.
The hon. Member will be aware that the Government published a White Paper on 4 July 2002 setting out our plans for dealing with the UK's nuclear legacy including the operation and clean-up of the Sellafield site.
