Government Response: NRIP established with expert council

The Nuclear Regulatory Implementation Panel (NRIP) has been established as an expert council chaired by DESNZ, with senior figures from government, regulators, industry, and the original Taskforce. It will meet at least twice yearly, with the first meeting scheduled for June 2026. NRIP reports to the PM's office, the Secretary of State for ESNZ, and the Defence Secretary. This directly implements the Taskforce's recommendation for a high-level oversight body, and the inclusion of Taskforce members provides continuity and accountability for the reform programme.
