Energy Strategy 2020: Nuclear EnergyEnergy Strategy 2020: Nuclear Energy. Action 2: Continuous improvement in safety and security
The legal framework for nuclear safety and security will be further enhanced
through the mid-term review of the Nuclear Safety Directive, the implementation of the Nuclear Waste Directive, the redefinition of the Basic Safety Standards for the protection of workers and the population and a
proposal for a European approach on nuclear liability regimes.
Greater harmonisation of plant design and
certification at the international level should also be
actively pursued. All these measures should allow the EU to keep its leadership in safe nuclear energy
and contribute to responsible use of nuclear energy worldwide.

. Action 4: Promoting legally binding nuclear-safety, security and non-proliferation standards worldwide
The Commission will develop initiatives aiming at encouraging partner States
to make international nuclear safety, security and non-proliferation standards and procedures legally binding and effectively implemented around the globe, in particular
through reinforced cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency and the conclusion of Euratom agreements with key nuclear suppliers and user countries.
