Bouygues Travaux Publics SAS and Laing O’Rourke Delivery Limited face a health and safety charge after a rebar mesh wall fell on a worker at the nuclear construction site, leaving him seriously injured.

The Nuclear Regulatory Taskforce is examining all aspects of the regulation of civil and defence nuclear.

ONR remains ready to regulate new projects as investment updates given for Sizewell C and the Small Modular Reactor competition.

The UK statement was delivered at the the International Atomic Energy Agency headquarters in Vienna.

'Nuclear safety and the protection of workers and the public will always be our priority, but we are committed to regulating in a way that supports cost-effective, efficient nuclear deployment.'

The conference is a valuable opportunity for ONR to engage constructively with a broad cross-section of industry stakeholders and to outline regulatory priorities for the year ahead.
