As the Council has already pointed out in its reply to Question No 1778 by Mr Rübig, the process of examining the Commission’s proposals has led the Council to adopt conclusions on 28 June on nuclear safety and on the safety of spent fuel management and radioactive waste management.
These conclusions reaffirm the commitment of the Community and its Member States to maintain a high level of nuclear safety. At the same time, it is a question of – and I quote these conclusions – facilitating the choice of instrument(s), in the framework of the Euratom Treaty, that can contribute more effectively to achieving nuclear safety and the safe management of spent fuel and radioactive waste, without excluding any instrument and in line with the principles of better law-making.
In accordance with these conclusions, an action plan was finalised in the second half of 2004. It is based on three areas: the safety of nuclear installations; the safety of spent fuel management and radioactive waste management; the financing of the decommissioning of nuclear installations and of the safe management of spent nuclear fuel and radioactive waste.
In this context, the Luxembourg Presidency has drawn up a working programme that sets out tasks to be completed, and has appointed the three groups of experts responsible for the different areas of the action plan. On the basis of this programme and considering the calendar of the various international authorities whose work has a bearing on the tasks to be completed, an overall report is planned for the end of 2006.
I can assure you that the Luxembourg Presidency attaches the greatest importance to this issue. It must be observed, however, that there are blocking minorities who are preventing us from advancing more rapidly along this road."@en1
