The Government is taking a strategic approach across all elements of this recommendation. The GDF will receive Critical National Priority status, and primary legislation is being pursued to grant the NDA statutory undertaker status with compulsory purchase powers. New permitted development rights will be introduced via GPDO amendment, and an alternative planning route for deep borehole investigations is being assessed. All actions are targeted for completion by December 2027, aligning with the original Taskforce timeline.
