Management of the UK Atomic Weapons Establishment (AWE) is to be brought back under the direct control of the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) after it terminated the existing contract with a US-UK outsourcing consortium four years early. Defence Secretary Ben Wallace announced the move to parliament in a written statement on 2 November, saying, "On 1 July 2019 the MoD triggered the successor arrangements clause with AWE ML [Management Limited] to enable it to consider alternative viable management options ahead of the current contract expiration. Although the existing arrangements have brought stability to the organisation, the MoD has concluded that AWE will revert to a direct government ownership model."
