Details

The Nuclear Regulatory Taskforce has been established to examine:

  • the suitability of the existing regulatory framework(s)
  • relevant legislation and supporting guidance
  • the scope and capacity of regulatory bodies
  • the expectations on regulatory outcomes
  • the culture and processes within the nuclear sector
  • support for innovation and the deployment of new nuclear
  • international harmonisation of regulatory approaches
  • align with international standards

We expect to publish our recommendations here by Autumn 2025.

We have launched a call for evidence to support the Taskforce.
