Category: Repeal
Resolution: GA #204 (http://www.nationstates.net/page=WA_past_resolutions/start=294)
Proposed by: [nation]Bergnovinaia[/nation]
Argument:
THE WORLD ASSEMBLY:
CONCERNED that the Resolution in question establishes the NESC and its duties but does not require nations to comply with its suggestions;
APPALLED at the idea that energy corporations and national nuclear energy industries may pick and choose guidelines that suit their corporation’s or nation’s needs without regards to civilian safety;
WORRIED that in order to maximize energy output and profits, corporations and national nuclear energy industries will cut corners, putting the everyday worker and civilian in harm's way from the many dangers of radiation from nuclear power;
TROUBLED that the mandate that member nations “follow adequate building designs" to construct nuclear power plant facilities may lead to corporations or national energy industries using older, more hazardous plans deemed as "adequate”;
ANXIOUS that while nations are required to "establish procedures and arrangements to maintain safety and stability", that they are not required to update these procedures on a regular basis;
FRIGHTENED that the same mandate does not give any real form of direction and thus gives corporations and national energy industries the freedom to implement potentially inefficient and non-protective safety codes;
REPEALS GA Resolution #204.
