Proceeding contribution from Mike Weir (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 25 October 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Radioactive Waste Management Report.


Radioactive Waste Management Report

The Secretary of State has said that the new process will be completely divorced from the old Nirex process, but given the type of disposal that is being discussed, is it not inevitable that the new body will opt for the same or similar sites as Nirex? Can the Secretary of State tell me whether Scotland has been ruled out as a site for a long-term repository?
