Govt to seek clarification on Sellafield reports
The Government has cautiously welcomed newspaper reports that British Nuclear Fuels is planning to close the Thorp reprocessing plant at Sellafield within the next seven years.
In a statement issued this lunchtime, the Department of the Environment said Minister Martin Cullen would write to his British counterpart to seek clarification of the reports and other matters related to the Sellafield nuclear facility.
