CoRWM position papers and document archive
CoRWM position papers and archive provide our published views on specific topics of interest to our stakeholders.
CoRWM regularly publishes Position Papers giving its view, at the time of publication, on key topics that are of relevance to its stakeholders.
The topics cover a range of activities, for example, responses to government consultations on radioactive waste management policy. They are also formed from other areas that are of particular interest and about which we receive regular enquiries.
The papers provide information, references and resources on these topics, so that you can pursue the subject in greater depth.
We welcome your comments on the Position Papers, including suggestions for future topics: please contact corwm@energysecurity.gov.uk.
The most up-to-date Position Papers are listed below. You can find past position papers and other CoRWM documents by visiting the CoRWM document archive on the National Archives Discovery. We have also developed a CoRWM document register that can be searched for topics of interest.
