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 first Quarterly Report for 2010 (Jan – Mar). This provides an update on our work to assess the safety cases for the new nuclear power station designs and looks at the key challenges ahead.
Good progress continues on the assessment and although many issues remain open and require further work, the Requesting Parties are making progress in addressing them. We remain confident that a meaningful assessment will be completed by June 2011.
