ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE PREPARATION OF NATIONAL
REPORTS FOR THE 7TH
REVIEW MEETING
I. Challenges
According to paragraph 35 of the Summary Report of the 6th Review Meeting of the
Contracting Parties to the Convention on Nuclear Safety (CNS):
“(…) a number of challenges were identified by the Special Rapporteur for consideration by
Contracting Parties:
· How to minimize gaps between Contracting Parties’ safety improvements? Chall. 1
· How to achieve harmonized emergency plans and response measures? Chall.
2
· How to make better use of operating and regulatory experience, and international
peer review services? Chall. 3
· How to improve regulators’ independence, safety culture, transparency and
openness? Chall. 4
· How to engage all countries to commit and participate in international
cooperation? Chall. 5
Contracting Parties agreed to continue to report in their National Reports on actions taken
with regard to lessons learned from the Fukushima Daiichi accident, taking into account
the challenges identified by the Special Rapporteur, as appropriate.”
Associated Articles proposed for each challenge:
· Challenge 1: (Articles 6, 14)
· Challenge 2: (Article 16)
· Challenge 3: (Article 19)
· Challenge 4: (Article 8, 10)
· Challenge 5: (according to INFCIRC/572 section III, B Summary)
II. Implementation of the Vienna Declaration on Nuclear Safety
The Vienna Declaration on Nuclear Safety (hereinafter, Vienna Declaration) was adopted by
the Contracting Parties by consensus at the Diplomatic Conference to Consider a Proposal by
Switzerland to Amend the CNS, on 9 February 2015.
The Vienna Declaration contains three principles to guide the Contracting Parties, as
appropriate, in the implementation of the objective of the CNS to prevent accident with
radiological consequences and mitigate such consequences should they occur:
1. New nuclear power plants are to be designed, sited, and constructed, consistent with
the objective of preventing accidents in the commissioning and operation and, should
an accident occur, mitigating possible releases of radionuclides causing long-term off
site contamination and avoiding early radioactive releases or radioactive releases
large enough to require long-term protective measures and actions;
2. Comprehensive and systematic safety assessments are to be carried out periodically
and regularly for existing installations throughout their lifetime in order to identify
safety improvements that are oriented to meet the above objective. Reasonably
practicable or achievable safety improvements are to be implemented in a timely
manner;
3. National requirements and regulations for addressing this objective throughout the
lifetime of nuclear power plants are to take into account the relevant IAEA Safety
Standards and, as appropriate, other good practices as identified inter alia in the
Review Meetings of the CNS.
The Contracting Parties to the CNS further decided that these principles should be reflected
in their actions, in particular during the preparation of their National Reports, with
special focus on Article 18 as well as other relevant Articles, including Articles 6, 14, 17
and 19, starting with the National Reports to be submitted for the 7th Review Meeting.
Furthermore, the National Reports should include inter alia an overview of
implementation measures, planned programs and measures for the safety
improvements identified for existing nuclear installations.
