8 Amendments of Helga TRÜPEL related to 2011/0414(CNS)

Amendment 16 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 3
(3) The Chernobyl accident in 1986 highlighted the global importance of nuclear safety. The Fukushima Daiichi accident in 2011 confirmed the need to continue the efforts to improve nuclear safety to the highest standards. To create the conditions of safety necessary to eliminate hazards to the life and health of the public, the European Atomic Energy Community (the ‘Community’) should be able to support nuclear safety in third countries . Both accidents prove that nuclear energy comprises unacceptable risks and that nuclear safety can best be achieved by abandoning nuclear energy.

Recital 3 a (new)
(3a) As nuclear energy capacities will regrettably continue to exist in certain countries, improving nuclear safety for existing capacities will unfortunately constitute a continuing need; however, the nuclear safety instrument shall not be used in the process of designing new nuclear energy capacities, as new capacities would increase the risk of accidents.
