"The Scottish Cancer Registry, desperate to keep leukaemia data secret, is going to the House of Lords to try overturning orders by the Information Commissioner and the Court of Session to release it. In an earlier move they published a fudged analysis of the data. It seems obvious that they fear the data will eventually be dragged into the light and that people will see higher risks near the coast of the Solway Firth, which is contaminated by Sellafield and by the testing of depleted Uranium weapons at the Dundrennan firing range.
The Cancer Registry paper is in the Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine. It is thoroughly bad epidemiology. "
