Nuclear Weapons 54 - European Union Studying Procendures to Prevent Diversion of Nulcear Materials
The European Commission (E.C.) has put out a request for proposals for a study of European Union (EU) security measures that are intended to prevent the diversion of nuclear materials from peaceful applications to military applications. The E.C. has a budget of twenty eight million and one hundred and sixty two nuclear inspectors. In 2012, the E.C. carried out over a thousand inspections and reviewed over a million and a half documents supplied by nuclear power plant operators.
