Assembly warns of nuclear waste risks

A London assembly report into the risks of transporting of nuclear waste on trains through the capital will today call for an "urgent technical review" to be carried out. The trains run through highly populated areas on their way from power stations in the south east to the Sellafield plant in Cumbria. With increased fears of the risks of terrorism, the report will argue for tighter security and better training for emergency services.
