Abstract
The Federal Government has not yet responded to the Switkowski report on Australia's nuclear future, which was released in December. Debate on its recommendations about nuclear power generation has moved into a higher gear with news that senior businessmen - some with strong Liberal Party affiliations, including Ron Walker, chairman of The Age's proprietor, Fairfax Media - have formed a company to develop nuclear power stations in Australia. But another issue raised by Dr Switkowski and his colleagues deserves attention - the question of Australia's nuclear weapons capability.
