French national report on the Convention on Nuclear Safety
Updated, November 17 2009
The structure of the fourth national report on how France implements its obligations under the Convention follows the articles of the Convention. The report was written under ASN coordination with contributions from IRSN, EDF, CEA and the Laüe-Langevin Institute. As the previous one, it also covers research reactors, on a voluntary basis.
This report was sent at the beginning of September 2007 to the IAEA that provides the secretariat for the meetings of the Contracting Parties and that will therefore distribute it to other Contracting Parties (60 as of September 28th) . It will be reviewed at the fourth review meeting due to take place at IAEA headquarters (14 - 25 April 2008).
