Last year, we continued to infuence and improve nuclear safety and security through our enabling approach to safety and making progress to implement Security Assessment Principles (SyAPs) rollout. We have also developed a new safeguards capability in preparation for the UK leaving the European Union (EU), ensuring the UK can continue to meet international non-proliferation obligations. In doing all these, we Nick Baldwin CBE have protected the workforce and the public. ONR Chair until 31 March 2019 We have delivered safety and security outcomes, taking appropriate enforcement action where required, including four prosecutions. We continued to recruit and develop many new staff, and sought to become a role model for improved diversity in the nuclear sector, with many staff short-listed for talent awards for the frst time, and a few winners, demonstrating the calibre and commitment of our people. I am confdent in the senior team’s leadership of ONR, with a single-minded purpose, improved corporate cohesion, and appropriate balance between short, medium and long- term outcomes. This has led to improved staff satisfaction, a transformation in our approach to capability and capacity building through the ONR Academy - a strategic improvement project designed to enhance our learning and development offering - and the frst steps towards a world-class regulatory information and knowledge management system. We said farewell, with thanks, to Jonathan Baume, the Health and Safety Executive’s (HSE’s) appointed Non-Executive Member of the ONR Board and, after eight years, I too leave the Board in the capable hands of Mark McAllister who takes the reins on 1 April 2019. All of this is possible only due to the talented and hard-working staff who choose ONR as their employer. Their enthusiasm, determination and loyalty remain a true constant in ONR’s remarkable history for which I thank them all. I would also like to thank my Board Members for their integrity, dedication, wise counsel and generous support at all times. It has been my pleasure to serve ONR, to see it mature as an excellent regulator, and to help it grow into a truly world-class organisation in every sense.

We have continued to deliver our prime purpose of ensuring public safety, while maturing our supporting functions and our corporate ways of working. With one more year of our 2015-2020 strategy ahead, I am delighted that we are on a smooth track to deliver our promises in an uncertain environment. While priding ourselves on our regulatory record, ONR is increasingly outwards and future-focussed, learning lessons from many sectors, and delivering signifcant change well for the short Adriènne Kelbie and longer terms. Chief Executive We worked fexibly to deliver effective regulation to a busy agenda, responding to challenges throughout the nuclear lifecycle. This included advising government regarding new nuclear technology and innovation, assessing designs for new build, responding to economic changes and market decisions, and regulating the Hinkley Point C build. We’ve regulated ageing reactors effectively, which has brought increased technical challenges on graphite cracking. And in decommissioning, fuel and waste, we’ve supported industry to progress remediation of many long-standing hazards in the UK. OUR COMMITMENT TO WORK MORE OPENLY HAS IMP ROVED STAKEHOLDER PERCEPTIONS AND LED TO STRONGER ENGAGEMENT WITH THOSE WHO DO NOT FORM PART OF INDUSTRY OR GOVERNMENT. We established a new UK State System of Accountancy for and Control of Nuclear Materials (UK SSAC) function in readiness for a departure from Euratom and developed new emergency planning arrangements for rollout in 2019. The implementation of our SyAPs has needed more time than anticipated, so we adjusted our plans to ensure we focussed on the quality outcomes it is intended to support. Our commitment to work more openly has improved stakeholder perceptions and led

  • GENERIC DESIGN ASSESSMENT PROGRESS REPORT REPORTING PERIOD 1 April 2012 – 30 June 2012
    Health and Safety Executive GENERIC DESIGN ASSESSMENT PROGRESS REPORT REPORTING PERIOD 1 April 2012 – 30 June 2012 FOREWORD During this last quarter our focus has been on: continuing to assess EDF and AREVA’s responses to the GDA Issues that we published in July 2011 for their UK EPRTM reactor; reviewing revised Resolution Plans provided by EDF and AREVA that set out how they will address the GDA Issues; and developing our own assessment work programmes to complete GDA in the light of the revised Resolution Plans. We are pleased to report that we are continuing to make progress on the assessment and that a further two GDA Issues have been closed. We are also pleased that EDF and AREVA have responded to our call to strengthen their resources and improve the quality and timeliness of their submissions to us. If EDF and AREVA sustain these improvements for the significant number of submissions that are still to be delivered and if they remain responsive to any questions that we raise, then we believe that the programmes that are set out in the revised resolution plans can be achieved. In that case, and if we are satisfied by the safety, security and environmental arguments that they put forward, then we might be able to close all of the remaining GDA Issues by the end of the year. This would enable us to consider whether we should issue a full Design Acceptance Confirmation and a full Statement of Design Acceptability for the UK EPR. We do not underestimate the challenges that this poses to EDF, AREVA and ourselves.
