We will invest in socio-economic initiatives that underpin our mission. We are committed to open and transparent engagement with our stakeholders.
| Key Issues | Our Approach | |
| Socio-Economic Development | How best to give encouragement and support to activities that benefit the social and economic lives of all of our communities. How should our future funding of socio-economic activities be organised to support community initiatives and longer-term strategic opportunities. | We have drafted and published our Socio-Economic Policy that addresses national priorities, as well as local need, as identified through consultation and research. We guide our contractors to address socio-economic issues that contribute to a strategic agenda, developed in consultation with local stakeholders. Engage proactively with our stakeholders to define the long-term socio-economic framework. Continue to act as the focal point for industry stakeholder engagement, where appropriate, and act as facilitator, catalyst and partner where others are best placed to lead on or implement plans for socio-economic development. |
| Stakeholder Relations | How to ensure we are an open and transparent organisation. How we engage with local communities around our sites and at national level.
| We will protect only that information that is genuinely commercially or personally sensitive or could prejudice national security. We commit to a stakeholder charter to ensure we practice what we preach. We commit to listen to, and take into account stakeholder views on our Strategy. We meet regularly with Site Stakeholder Groups (SSGs) and other interested parties to assess the effects of our proposed plans. We have established a UK National Stakeholder Group, including two Issue Groups examining specific issues, and will convene that group biannually. We will develop proactive and positive relations with the media. We will maintain this website as a primary vehicle for communication with stakeholders.
