Radioisotopes: Production
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the case for a medical isotope production facility in North Wales, and what steps they are taking to ensure secure domestic access to medical isotopes for diagnostic and therapeutic use in the NHS.
- Answer
-
The Department has not made a specific assessment of the Welsh Government’s project to build a reactor for medical radioisotope manufacture.
