THE government has admitted withholding medical records of veterans who survived British nuclear tests.
The Mirror reported today that blood and urine test results of servicemen, civilians and indigenous people taken during nuclear tests in Australia and the South Pacific 70 years ago have been kept a “state secret.”
The hidden documents are believed to contain vital information such as whether radiation entered the bodies of those forced to participate.
