Sellafield safety issue a matter for EU not just UK - Matt Carthy

The safety record of the Sellafield Nuclear processing plant in the UK is an issue of European concern and not just a British one. That’s according to the Sinn Fein MEP Matt Carthy. He’s calling on the EU Commission to put pressure on the UK government to shut Sellafield down. The Midlands North-West MEP wrote to the EU Commissioner for Environment, Maritime and Fisheries following the recent BBC Panorama programme which exposed a catalogue of safety concerns at the nuclear site.
