EP Briefing 2002-06-10: Research and Training on nuclear energy (amendments - consultation)

Strasbourg, 05 June 2002

Konstantinos ALYSSANDRAKIS (EUL/NGL, GR) will be presenting a non-binding draft motion for a resolution on a programme for research and training with regard to nuclear energy.

The reporter thinks that the Commission proposal is well balanced. Amendments relate to:

Fusion technology and a European site for ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor);

JET (Joint European Torus). Facilities should be phased out progressively according to the schedule for ITER

Waste characterisation and waste packages.

The future needs of old reactors.
