This report is for a project commissioned by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office and coordinated by Dr Nick Ritchie at the University of York. The project examines the reversibility of UK commitments to questionable security strategies based around nuclear weapons. It also explores the more general irreversibility of wider steps towards nuclear disarmament in the event that these were to occur. The report was prepared for a workshop involving senior figures concerned with the steering of UK government policy around both military and civil nuclear technologies.
