Is the IPC involved with decommissioning projects in the UK?

Advice given

The IPC determines applications for Development Consent Orders. Development Consent is required for Nationally Significant Infrastructure Projects (NSIP’s), as defined in the 2008 Act.

The IPC would become involved in “decommissioning projects” if those projects met the definition of an NSIP. You can see examples of some of the work we do on our website at http://infrastructure.independent.gov.uk/, in our programme of forthcoming projects.

If you have specific details of a forthcoming project that you feel may be an NSIP, please do not hesitate to contact me. However, you should be aware that we have a policy of openness and will publish any advice we give on our website, so you should not send us anything that is confidential / commercially sensitive.
