LONDON, April 7 (Reuters) - Britain has moved the Hartlepool nuclear power station in northeast England operated by France's EDF into enhanced regulatory attention for safety, the Office for Nuclear Regulation (ONR) said on Monday.

Although the station remained safe to operate, the decision was made after areas for improvement were identified, the ONR said in a statement.
