Need for scrutiny of troubled Hunterston nuclear reactor before restarting it

At the quarterly meetings, held in public, councillors and local community council groups can question nuclear chiefs about the power plant and its operation.
Councillor Ian Murdoch believes that it is imperative that a scrutiny
meeting takes place before the reactors are switched back on after cracks
were found in their graphite cores. The acceptable threshold of cracks has
been extended from 350 to 700 by regulators ONR, who recently gave
permission for Hunterston reactor 4 to be brought back online for a four
month spell.
