(23 a) Due to historical reasons, Union financial support in decommissioning the Ignalina nuclear reactor is fully justified, but the program should not set a precedent for the use of Union funds in the decommissioning of other nuclear reactors. It should be an ethical obligation for each Member State to avoid any undue burden on future generations in respect of spent fuel and radioactive waste, including any radioactive waste expected from decommissioning of existing nuclear installations. National policies have to be based on the "polluter pays principle".

(23 b) Commission Recommendation 2006/851/Euratom indicates that in accordance with the "polluter pays principle", nuclear operators should set aside adequate financial resources during the productive life of the installations for the future decommissioning costs.
