Wylfa nuclear reactor shut down for fuel element investigation

The Wylfa nuclear power station has been shut down since Saturday

The operators of a nuclear power station on Anglesey say it is "highly unlikely" a fault will mean it shuts down permanently.

Station bosses Magnox shut down the Wylfa reactor on Saturday after they were unable to remove a fuel element.

The reactor is due to stop generating power at the end of 2015.

However, operators Magnox said the firm did not expect to bring its closure forward as a result of the fault.

They added the reactor would not restart until investigations have been completed.
