Richard Outram has been agreed by members as the new co-chair of the NDA NGO Forum.

Richard Outram has been agreed by members as the new co-chair of the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) forum dedicated to discussion with non-governmental organisations (NGOs).

The Forum reinforces the NDA’s commitment to open, constructive dialogue, providing a platform for NGOs to engage with and question the NDA on strategic issues relating to its mission.

The NDA is the government sponsored body responsible for the safe and secure decommissioning of 19 former nuclear sites across the UK, and Paul Vallance, NDA Group Chief Corporate Affairs Officer and Chief of Staff, is the NDA co-chair.

Richard has been closely involved with the Forum since it was established in 2022 and has served as its Secretariat. He is currently an Advisor to the Welsh Anti-Nuclear Alliance (WANA) and previously served as Secretary of Nuclear Free Local Authorities (UK and Ireland).

The Forum provides a valuable opportunity for NGOs to engage directly with the NDA and bring different perspectives to the table.
