The government has been accused of covering up the sale of 20 tonnes of heavy water to Israel for its nuclear programme in the early 1950s.
The BBC's Newsnight says fresh evidence shows the UK knew the ingredient it sold to Norway would be subsequently sold on to Israel for nuclear weapons.
Government officials insist they knew nothing of Israel's nuclear ambitions or Norway's intentions.
The Foreign Office has declined to comment, amid calls for an inquiry.
