We are taking forward all of the recommendations of the Nuclear Regulatory Review and have published our implementation plan with all reforms expected to be completed by the end of 2027.

The Department is actively progressing work on the Nuclear Regulation Bill, which will be introduced when Parliamentary time allows.

A Bill team has been established by the Department.
