"This announcement is pure spin" said Greenpeace nuclear campaigner, Pete Roche, he continued

"The government are saying that they are achieving 'major cuts' in radioactive discharges when in fact what they are doing is failing to meet the commitments they made to the international community to reduce radioactive discharges"

The reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel was always at the heart of the civilian nuclear enterprise. Separating plutonium and unburned uranium from the fuel matrix was regarded as indispensable. This was because uranium would become scarce, fast breeder reactors (dependent on large amounts of plutonium as a fuel) would come to dominate, and radioactive waste management (RWM) would become easier with the smaller volume of high level waste (HLW) that reprocessing would isolate...
