2013/11/27

Kyodo news obtained a document mentioning that the government plans to stipulate in its long-term energy plan that publicity activities on nuclear power should be reinforced.

In the document, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, which is in charge of devising the plan, said it will place importance on providing “information based on objective facts or scientific evidence, such as safety and economic efficiency.”

The government has been restrained in behavior toward publicizing nuclear power after the devastating accident at the nuclear disaster among the public over the use of nuclear reactors.
