Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

The Sellafield reprocessing plant has been the subject of discussions, questions, priority questions and Private Members' time during the past 30 years. Having visited the place myself on several occasions I am well aware, as is Deputy Adams, that some serious issues arose from leaks from Sellafield into the Irish Sea over a period of years. We are pleased to note that with all the connections, pressure and so on, this matter improved greatly. Sellafield is included. It is part of the analysis of the stress tests on nuclear and reprocessing plant in Europe, such as Sellafield.
