The transport of nuclear waste is a matter of legitimate concern for London. This Assembly report examines: the existing emergency planning in the event of a radiological release; the current readiness of the emergency services and nuclear industry in such an event; and the issue of trackside contamination. The Committee has made positive recommendations in a number of areas where improvement needs to be made including emergency planning, trackside monitoring, trackside security, risk assessment and alternative routes.
