The Nuclear Regulatory Review 2025 (the "Fingleton Report") was published in November 2025 and contains 47 recommendations to reform UK nuclear regulation, aiming to cut costs and build times.
Resolution criteria:
Resolves YES if the UK government makes an official announcement (ministerial statement, policy paper, or primary legislation) explicitly accepting all 47 recommendations by 31 March 2026
Resolves NO if the government rejects any recommendations, accepts only a partial subset, announces acceptance with material caveats/dilutions, or makes no formal commitment by the deadline

Update 2025-12-01 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): The creator has indicated they will not immediately resolve the market based on the Prime Minister's statement of "accepting the Fingleton recommendations" because the statement was not sufficiently explicit that all 47 recommendations will be accepted.
This clarifies that the resolution criteria requires an explicit acceptance of all 47 recommendations, not just a general reference to "accepting the Fingleton recommendations."
Buying YES. The government announced in mid-March 2026 that it is "taking forward all of the taskforce's recommendations" and published a full implementation plan. The ONR explicitly welcomed "the government's acceptance of the Nuclear Regulatory Taskforce's recommendations." This appears to satisfy the resolution criteria of an official announcement explicitly accepting all 47 recommendations by Q1 2026.
Today, the Prime Minister stated that "And therefore – in addition to accepting the Fingleton recommendations… I am asking the Business Secretary to apply these lessons across the entire industrial strategy."
However, I'm not going to resolve the market yet, since he hasn't been particularly explicit that all recommendations will be accepted: https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/prime-ministers-speech-on-britain-built-for-all-1-december-2025
