Re "well within the safety margin":

> EDF was granted permission by the regulator in the summer to relax its graphite weight-loss limit at the Dungeness reactor in Kent from 6.2% to 8% after it came close to breaching the original safety margin.

> Hinkley-B and Hunterston-B are also getting close to their higher 15% limits, too.
