John Fingleton CBE
June 2026
John Fingleton’s Nuclear Regulatory Task Force produced a powerful report which has been widely welcomed by the government and across the infrastructure sectors.
The Infrastructure Forum is very glad that John Fingleton has agreed to lead a special roundtable on the lessons of his taskforce's work and the possibilities for applying similar approaches to other infrastructure sectors including water, rail and airports. These sectors are clearly critical to future development of UK national infrastructure and the discussion with John Fingleton promises to be constructive and enlightening.
RECENT POLICY DISCUSSIONS
The Infrastructure Forum recently convened a roundtable discussion with the Prime Minister’s Special Advisor on Business and Investment, Varun Chandra. The discussion explored the current UK business investment climate and the role infrastructure can play in driving economic growth, alongside an exchange on the Forum’s priorities across The Infrastructure Forum (TIF) working groups.
The series will continue in March with a further roundtable featuring Dame Minouche Shafik, the Prime Minister’s Chief Economic Advisor.
