Enhance the terms and conditions for regulatory roles requiring strong technical judgment
Enhance regulatory terms and conditions
Regulators should have the flexibility to improve pay and conditions for roles requiring technical expertise and data-driven decision-making, ensuring they can attract and retain essential scientific talent.
Government Response: Remuneration data gathering and implementation plan
Work is underway to gather data on roles and remuneration across the regulatory bodies, with an implementation plan due by Summer 2026. This will complement improvements already being made by DEFRA to Environment Agency terms. Defence-side implementation will be aligned with the ONR-DNSR merger process. While the commitment is clear, the Summer 2026 implementation plan is a planning milestone rather than delivery, so the actual improvements to pay and conditions will follow later.
