Radiation Exposure To United Kingdom Workers
EDM number 893 in 1989-90, proposed by John McFall on 25/04/1990.
That this House notes that to date the Ministry of Defence has carried out no health control studies on refit workers similar to that carried out at Sellafield by Professor Gardner; is mindful that radiation dose exposures of United States nuclear propulsion programme workers are much less than for United Kingdom refit workers undertaking similar tasks; expresses dismay that no radiation dose figures prior to 1979 have been released; and urges the Government to carry out health control studies forthwith as well as urgently reviewing and revising downwards the annual and lifetime dose radiation exposure figures for United Kingdom workers.
This motion has been signed by a total of 41 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
