Iran: Nuclear Power

Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what recent reports he has received on the effect of the Stuxnet computer virus on Iran's nuclear programme.
Answer

I am aware of recent reports relating to the Stuxnet computer virus. It is for Iran to comment on the impact of such incidents. However, it is clear that Iran is continuing to undertake proliferation-sensitive activities including seeking to expand its nuclear programme, in direct defiance of six UN Security Council resolutions.
