Research on the status and problems of information disclosure in the field of nuclear safety in China

Abstract

Public concern about nuclear safety reached an unprecedented level after the fukushima accident in Japan. Although the existing laws and regulations in the field of nuclear safety in China regulate the information disclosure to a certain extent, compared with other advanced nuclear countries, there are still some problems such as the imperfect legal system and the insufficient operability of information disclosure methods. The information disclosure system and mechanism of the United States, France, and the United Kingdom were studied, and solutions to problems were proposed to provide reference for improving the information disclosure mechanism in China’s nuclear safety field.
