France’s nuclear regulator wants the power to fine atomic installations for safety breaches so faults that aren’t serious enough to close a site are fixed faster.
Fines would raise the credibility of the regulator, Pierre-Franck Chevet, head of the Autorite de Surete Nucleaire, said today. Some faults take more than a decade to fix, he said.
