The Chancellor has sent an open letter declaring nuclear a strategic national priority and setting expectations of proportionate, outcome-focused regulation. Leaders have been asked to produce six-month plans addressing gold-plating, risk appetite, culture change, and contractual alignment. The Government will also explore contracting mechanisms that incentivise proportionate ALARP solutions. This directly implements the Taskforce's recommendation for a Chancellor's letter and contracting reform, with the six-month response window creating a clear accountability checkpoint.
