Fatal shortcomings in the NII's investigation into BNFL falsification of mox fuel data
The Nuclear Installations Inspectorate (NII) report is an inadequate investigation of MOX data falsification. The NII has failed to recognise that BNFL has fundamental production difficulties with the manufacture of MOX fuel, which will not be resolved by sacking workers or managers or partially automating the checks. This means that the NII recommendations are inadequate and that the actions they require BNFL to take to address the problem will fall far short of what is required.
