I refer to the reply to Questions Nos. 6 and 8 of today's date.

Currently, the principal activities at Sellafield include the storage and reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel, the storage of plutonium and uranium, the fabrication of mixed oxide (MOX) fuel and decommissioning operations. Reprocessing at THORP remains suspended following the leak at the plant, which was detected in April 2005.
