Between June and September 2023, the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) sought views on introducing new cost recovery regimes, some simplifications to existing regimes and changes to cost recovery rates to ensure full cost recovery.
This proposal focused on high-hazard activities and emerging technologies with strategic national importance. The implementation of these cost recovery proposals has not changed the HSE’s regulatory approach to these sectors, which is evidence-based, but has provided a sustainable financial model to ensure effective regulation now and in the future.
An outcome to this consultation will be published in due course.
