Environment Agency charges consultation: radioactive substances regulation (non-nuclear sites)
We want your views on our proposed changes to our charges so we can continue to fully recover our costs.
Detail
As a public body, we must follow government guidance on managing public money. This means we must recover the full cost of the services we provide; customers will only pay for the regulatory service they receive.
We have reviewed our service for regulating radioactive substances at non-nuclear sites under The Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2016 and we are consulting on our proposal to increase charges.
This consultation proposes an increase to these charges to accommodate:
- changes in the cost of delivering our services
- inflationary pressures
- National Counter Terrorism Security Office requirements to oversee security improvements at through permitting and inspections
We invite you to share your view and thoughts about our proposal.
