The Government is committed to driving growth and innovation through regulation. It is currently consulting with the space sector on options to revise how the limit of operator liability is determined for satellite operations, as part of development of a wider set of regulatory financial tools to support the growth of the UK’s orbital operations sector.

The Government intends to set out its latest thinking to the sector shortly in response to the feedback received. These measures will contribute to a reduction of operators’ regulatory administrative costs in line with the Prime Minister’s target of a 25% reduction across sectors by 2030.
