West Cumbria Managing Radioactive Waste Safely Partnership

The Government is looking for a community in the UK to volunteer to have a repository. Allerdale Borough Council, Copeland Borough Council and Cumbria County Council decided to take part in early discussions about this process on behalf of West Cumbria because a large amount of the country's radioactive waste is already stored in the area at Sellafield. The Councils set up the West Cumbria Managing Radioactive Waste Safely Partnership, which includes organisations such as Churches Together in Cumbria, the Lake District National Park Authority, the National Farmers' Union and the Cumbria Association of Local Councils. The Partnership's role is to advise the Councils on whether West Cumbria should take part in the Government's search for somewhere to locate a repository. Even if that happens, the Councils would still have a right to withdraw from the process up until the point when work could start on the underground facilities, probably more than a decade from now. We hope people will take some time to look at this film and the information on our website - www.westcumbriamrws.org.uk - so they can help the community representatives on the Partnership come to an informed view on what should happen next.
