Our governance
On 1 April 2024 the entire business of RWM was transferred to LLWR which was subsequently renamed NWS.
Nuclear Waste Services Limited (NWS Ltd) is a wholly owned subsidiary division of the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA).
LLWR was established to operate the Low Level Waste Repository site, owned by the NDA and RWM was incorporated by the NDA in April 2014 for the purpose of delivering a Geological Disposal Facility (GDF) and providing solutions for the management of higher-activity radioactive waste. Following the merger, NWS continues to be responsible for these activities.
