British Nuclear Fuels today categorically
denied that HMS Nottingham was to provide escort duties for
the Pacific Pintail and Pacific Teal on their voyage from
Japan to the United Kingdom.
A spokesman for British
Nuclear Fuels said the suggestion which has emanated from
the United Kingdom had absolutely no foundation in
fact.
The spokesman said the Nottingham’s planned port
visit to Wellington in New Zealand was purely
coincidental.
