The development of the Safeguards Information Management and Reporting IT System (SIMRS) is on track for testing and operations by the end of 2018. SIMRS will enable the ONR to manage and process the electronic Nuclear Materials Accountancy reports from its dutyholders and submit these, along with other relevant safeguards reports to the IAEA to enable the UK to meet its international obligations, once Euratom safeguards no longer provide this function in the UK. As a contingency measure in the unlikely event that SIMRS is not ready by 29 March 2019, these reports can be manually downloaded by ONR for submission to the IAEA.<\/p>
<\/p>
All information processed by ONR, whether through SIMRS, or manually, will be handled in accordance with standard control measures for Sensitive Nuclear Information, according to its specific security classification. ONR has well established processes for handling Sensitive Nuclear Information through their role as the safety and security regulator of the civil nuclear industry.<\/p>"}

This contingency for SIMRS has been developed to deliver all the information required in the timeframes and format agreed as part of the VOA. The VOA does not specify the manner in which such reports must be processed by the UK State System of Accounting for and Control of Nuclear Material (SSAC).<\/p>"}

Ofgem ran a simplified collective switch trial between February and April this year as part of its trials to engage disengaged consumers and helping them switch to a cheaper tariff, which involved around 50,000 customers from one of the six largest energy suppliers who had been on a standard variable tariff for three years or more. Overall, 22.4% of customers in the trial switched. Ofgem plans a larger collective switching trial later this autumn.<\/p>"}

Implementation of this contingency for SIMRS will require an understanding of nuclear material accountancy.
