Decommissioning is handled by the NDA (Nuclear Decommissioning Authority), website http://www.nda.gov.uk/. The financial report for 2006/7 and 2007/8 is available from the website. It is naturally a very long report with lots of pretty pictures, but pages 28/29 will probably be of most interest. It says that for 2007/8 £1,646 million was received from the taxpayer, with commercial income of £1,458 million. Nuclear liabilities are listed at £44,095 million and growing compared to the previous year, so there is a long way to go.
I will add something for development - this has recently changed
