Here's a larger piece, including the broadcast interviews with Dr Baverstock and Dr Repacholi (who, if you listen to the audio, sounds lying a lying weasel to me):
DR REPACHOLI: We want a comprehensive report - we want to include everything that we can - but we don't want fairytale stuff - it wasn't collaborated by other reports - that was felt to the level that science would say this was established.
ANGUS STICKLER: My understanding is that at the time that there were eight published peer reviewed research studies - attesting to the genotoxic nature of uranium - all of which could have been included in the monograph?
REPACHOLI: Yep - these - er - papers were speculative at the time and W.H.O. will only publish data that they know is established.
...
We asked for an interview with the scientist who conducted these studies - Dr Alexandra Miller – the US Department of Defense refused. The BBC has been told that she applied to the US Army Research Programme to do further work on the effects of depleted uranium in 2004, five and six. All the applications were turned down.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/today/reports/international/uranium_20061101.shtmlIt seems to be that peer reviewed research casts real doubt on the 'established' science. The US fired 320 tons in Gulf War I – and possibly as much as 2,000 tonnes in Gulf War II. The UN has trained Iraqi scientists to assess the problems Iraq may be seeing from DU - but they won't be able to show anything without information on how much DU was used, and where. So far, the US has just stonewalled them with "it'll take a long time to get that information together".
