Low Grade Nuclear Waste Dumping

EDM number 1593 in 1993-94, proposed by John Gunnell on 18/10/1994.

That this House is strongly opposed to the dumping of nuclear waste described as 'low grade' on municipal sites; notes that radioactive waste from hospitals causes increased contamination in water draining from sites where it is deposited; regards as irresponsible the deposition of much larger volumes of nuclear power station waste in areas of population; notes that some of the 39 sites listed recently by the Department of the Environment are full whereas others are privately-owned; and calls on that Department to withdraw its proposals or make clear that local authority planning committees will have the power to approve or reject such applications as their local communities wish.

This motion has been signed by a total of 73 MPs.
