Alex was a Non-Executive Director of London & Continental Railways Limited from 2018 to 2021. You should be realistic. The person you are talking to might need to share your information with others. This could be their employees or professional advisors. They may also need to copy your information for this purpose. Make sure that these disclosures to employees and professional advisers are made in confidence. My ongoing thanks also go to my dedicated colleagues throughout the group, as well as our Board and the Governments of the UK and devolved administrations. I’d like to thank Ros Rivaz who recently completed her term as NDA Chair and welcome Chris Train who has taken on the role of interim Chair while a permanent successor is recruited. Our work is one of the most important environmental programmes in the world, protecting people and the planet. I remain confident that we have the right team and strategy to deliver our commitments on behalf of the nation. During the year, I continued to meet with ministers and officials from the UK Government and devolved administrations, representing the NDA and Board. The relationship with regulators is critical and we have worked closely with the Office of Nuclear Regulation, the Environment Agency, Scottish Environmental Protection Agency and Natural Resources Wales. Regular Chair meetings with these and other bodies in the nuclear sector ensure effective and appropriate connections to progress the NDA’s mission, for example with the resourcing challenge as new nuclear developments progress in the UK and beyond. Local stakeholders are extremely important in areas of existing work, future work - such as the Advanced Gas cooled Reactor transitions - and with future potential communities, for example exploring options for a Geological Disposal Facility. Our customers, both in UK and internationally, are critical to our mission. People The Group CEO is responsible for the leadership and operational management of the NDA. As CEO they are accountable to the Board and as Accounting Officer to Parliament for: NDA activities, public funds employed, ensuring targets are met and for implementing the strategy and plans approved by the Board and DESNZ. Board committees

Increasingly, we’re building a more accurate picture of the work that has been completed across our 47 outcomes and that which is still left to do. The Chair of the Board is accountable to the Secretary of State for our activities and performance in implementing our strategy and annual business plan, for formulating the Board’s strategy for discharging our statutory functions and duties and for providing effective leadership and direction of the Board. Australia is owned to a literal degree by China even more so than the U.S. Not only is Biden risking violation of NDAs by Australians, whether intentional or not, he is also putting sensitive information in the hands of a country that is beholden to China. This information spans not just the nuclear technology we have, but defense technology and how the two interrelate and support each other. You can’t design a core without the software to do it, so this transfer must include things like highly proprietary and sensitive computer codes, from Monte Carlo transport and depletion codes to thermal hydraulics codes using CFD, critical heat flux correlations, DNB correlations, etc., etc.Several incentives are given to sustainability across the NDA group. One of these is the Long-Term Incentive Plan, setting incentivised targets until 2025, as well as incentives associated with being a beacon project. United Nations Sustainable Development Goals The Board scruitinised reports from colleagues, stakeholder groups and from our engagement with its recognised trade unions and other colleague representatives, taking their input on the best way forward The Board provides effective and proactive leadership within a robust governance framework of clearly defined internal controls and risk management processes.

Group Chief Financial Officer (until 31 March 2023) Board performance Corporate governance complianceObserve the Accounts Direction issued by the Secretary of State with the approval of HM Treasury, including the relevant accounting and disclosure requirements, and apply suitable accounting policies on a consistent basis

The responsibilities of an Accounting Officer, including responsibility for the propriety and regularity of the public finances for which the Accounting Officer is answerable, for keeping proper records and for safeguarding the NDA’s assets, are set out in Managing Public Money published by the HM Treasury.

You should record what you disclose at meetings or in presentations. Ask people present to sign a paper copy of a presentation, or a technical drawing to prove they have seen it. In March 2021 we published our new Strategy. As a consequence, we have revised some of the detail around a number of outcomes to ensure they continue to align with our strategic approach. A governance structure that reaches all levels of the NDA group is fundamental to achieving the vision. An establishment and government this corrupt cannot endure in the long-term. It is going to collapse from its own internal contradictions and weaknesses, if nothing props it up. Those caught in the maelstrom will do their best to drag us down with them, but don’t fall for it. Patience and forbearance win the day. Withdraw your consent and your money and attention, insofar as this is possible. Go Galt… just because they’re gone stark raving mad and insane doesn’t mean the rest of us have to do so… NDA employees are eligible to participate in the Civil Service Pension Arrangements. A small number of employees who transferred to the NDA from INS in 2019 continue to accrue benefits in the UKAEA Combined Pension Scheme.

Don’t disclose your ideas or information until the recipient has signed and returned the NDA to you. Without an NDA, you are taking the risk that others could use your ideas or information without your permission. NDAs can be one way, PDF 18.3KB or mutual, PDF 17.4KB. Use a one-way NDA if only you are disclosing information and a mutual NDA if both parties are. Group employees participate in various defined benefit pension schemes detailed in note 26 to the accounts. I know folks who left the Navy nuclear program, and while they are allowed to report on their CV or resume what ship they worked on, they cannot publish the type of nuclear reactor, or vice versa, they can put the nuclear reactor type with which they have had experience, but not connect it to a specific ship. Many of the engineers and scientists at KAPL stay for a long time, but some leave because they can’t publish. Publishing what they know isn’t allowed.The A&RAC provides advice and assurance to the Board on all matters within its remit. The committee oversees audit and financial reporting, advises and reports on the plans, activities and performance of internal and external audit, and provides an assessment of assurance reliability and integrity. The committee oversees the effectiveness and quality of the group risk management framework and monitors risk exposure against group risk appetite. During the year the A&RAC has: The Board is comprised of executive members and non-executive members (including the Chair) with the latter forming a majority. The non-executive members must comprise a Chair, appointed by the Secretary of State, and a number of other persons appointed by the Secretary of State after consultation with the Chair. The executive members must comprise a Chief Executive, appointed by the non-executive members. Whether there are to be any executive members in addition to the Chief Executive is a matter for the non-executive members. In May 2023 the Board resolved that the Group Chief Financial Officer should be an executive member of the Board. All matters presented to the Board are decided by a majority of votes of those Board members present. There is no distinction in the voting rights of the executive and non-executive members. Details of the current Board members are set out in the Governance Statement. Changes to the NDA Board during the year
