Annual figures for holdings of civil unirradiated plutonium

Annual information on holdings of civil plutonium in the UK have been published for the last twenty five years. In 1997, the UK, along with Belgium, China, France, Germany, Japan, Russia, Switzerland and the US, reached agreement on a set of Guidelines for the Management of Plutonium. These include a commitment to publish annual figures for national holdings of civil plutonium at the end of each calendar year to improve transparency and public confidence.
