Talk:Great British Nuclear

message: Researchers at Southampton University concluded that a link was present, deducing that radiation damage to men working at the plants had caused genetic abnormalities in their children. After this report British Nuclear Fuels initially advised workers who were being exposed to high levels of radiation not to father children, although they have since withdrawn this advice.
Could you provide a reference for this?

: I think the Southampton research is the old 1984 "Black Report" summarised in the latest COMARE report . The 2005 COMARE report concludes from more recent research in 3.7:
::We concluded that the excess of childhood leukaemia and NHL in the area, which is mainly located in the local village of Seascale, when examined in the context of the national distribution of these diseases, is highly unusual in that it has persisted for some tens of years and that it is unlikely to be due to chance. However, we found that no one factor could account for the observed increase in the level of disease, although infection, at least in part, could not be ruled out as having some causal association. Some interaction between different factors could also not be ruled out.
:So there are some increased risks in the area, but it's not completely clear why.  NB similar raised levels are around Sellafield, Burghfield, Dounreay and Rosyth; and solid tumours levels are significantly raised around Aldermaston, Burghfield, Harwell and Rosyth (para 3.4).  Seems there are some worries around most of the UK nuclear weapons/research/reprocessing sites, but no significant raised levels around ordinary nuclear power stations.

*There is much controversy surrounding BNFL's Sellafield plant because of the plant's routine radioactive discharges, nuclear waste accidents, and an excess of leukaemia near the plant.
I don't mind it being in the article, it jst needs a source --Apyule 10:30, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
