Office for Nuclear Regulation grant a site licence to Nuclear Restoration Services (NRS) - major milestone that will enable the site's decommissioning. With exactly two weeks until Hunterston B becomes the UK's first Advanced Gas-cooled Reactor (AGR) site to transfer into UK Government ownership, a major milestone that will enable the nuclear power station’s decommissioning has been achieved.
Total levels of property and violent crime have fallen by 42% since 2008-09, according to the latest Scottish Crime and Justice Survey (SCJS).
