The UK has three arrangements with France in support of the Teutates programme. The first is between the UK and French Nuclear Safety regulators to ensure safety of operations, and the second and third are between the Ministry of Defence and the Commissariat l'énergie atomique et aux énergies alternatives (CEA) to support the construction of the Epure facility at Valduc.
