The Nuclear Decommissioning and Waste Handling (Finance and Fees) Regulations 2013

Chapter 1 of Part 3 of the Energy Act 2008 (“the 2008 Act”) sets out the legislative framework for funded decommissioning programmes. These Regulations are made using the powers in that Chapter, in relation the preparation, content, implementation and modification of such programmes. These Regulations replace the Nuclear Decommissioning and Waste Handling (Finance and Fees) Regulations 2011 (“the 2011 Regulations”). They contain a transitional provision for any funded decommissioning programme already submitted under the 2011 Regulations.
