Sellafield

EDM number 378 in 2001-02, proposed by Paul Flynn on 07/11/2001.

That this House agrees with the Irish Prime Minister's comment that Sellafield is a defunct military-industrial complex that is being kept on life-support by the huge write-off of British taxpayers' funds, and is a triumph of vested interest over economic reality; and believes that nuclear reprocessing is an environmentally dangerous, economically unsustainable and industrially unnecessary activity which should be halted, that the manufacture of plutonium-based mixed oxide fuel at Sellafield should not be started, that Sellafield should be converted into a centre of excellence for the management of nuclear waste and that as a matter of urgency the air and off-shore exclusion zones around Sellafield should be extended to 50 miles, and anti-aircraft missile batteries should be installed around Sellafield to provide protection from terrorist attack.

This motion has been signed by a total of 28 MPs.
