As Adriènne has said, COVID-19 has changed the way we work, but it has helped us adapt to new ways of working that might otherwise have taken much longer to implement. Although inspectors are working at home wherever they can, we have continued to go to site (as key workers and with public health measures in place) to conduct urgent or essential regulatory business. Most recently, I visited Sellafield, with Paul Fyfe (our Director of Civil Nuclear Security and Safeguards), to find out more about progress on key projects, and explore the site’s current resilience levels. Regulatory assessment work has continued as normal in recent months. Our specialist inspectors have been working hard to complete their assessment of the safety case submission provided by EDF NGL regarding the restart of Reactor 3 at Hunterston B. As soon as we have made our decision, we will announce it publicly.
