Kevin Allars, Director of New Build GDA at the HSE, and Joe McHugh, Head of Radioactive Substances Regulation at the Environment Agency, have today published the fourth Quarterly Report for 2009 (October – December). This provides an update on our work to assess new nuclear power station designs.
In summary, good progress continues on the assessment, but many technical issues remain open and the successful clearance of these will require high quality and timely information from the Requesting Parties (RPs).
