What a fantastic university it is, and what a terrific asset the reactor is to the university.
The point that you raise is, of course, a question about strategic sovereign assets. We know what happens when we have isotope shortages. I'm not inherently against the contract that was issued. The problem is the transparency and accountability of that contract and whether it provides us exactly the sort of answers to the questions you are looking for.
We also need to think about the counterfactual if we lose certain capacities in nuclear. Think about what happened in Germany when it voluntarily decided to get out of nuclear and what that did to the cost of living, productivity, innovation and prosperity in Germany, and the amount of regret there is today.
We need to be very clear that, whether deliberately or inadvertently, we may be giving up critical sovereign capacities that we'll regret having given up some years down the road and that will be very difficult or impossible to get back.
