Nuclear Safety: Motion.
The Minister has the support of this side of the House in his endeavours. He should keep up his work at an international level but we also have a wider responsibility to think out the implications in regard to the huge amount of employment Sellafield provides. We must be honest on the issue. It is easy for us to make remarks about Sellafield which make us and our constituents feel good, but nothing happens as a result. Our amendment is something we can achieve in the short term. I ask the Government to press the issue and I ask the British Government, as a good friend and neighbour, to concede.
