Serbian delegation at bilateral meetings with representatives of Hungary and Romania

The representatives from Serbian Radiation and Nuclear Safety and Security Directorate met today with the representatives from Romania in order to have talks on bilateral cooperation between two regulatory bodies. The main conclusions of the talks were that the draft Bilateral Agreement on cooperation in radiation and nuclear safety and security is currently awaiting the approval of the Government of the Republic of Serbia, and this was not seen as an impediment to cooperation and joint activities by two regulatory bodies.

Close cooperation in transboundary transport and radon measurement in the region had already been agreed. As a result, another meeting on this issue in the near future in Drobeta-Turnu Severin, Romania was agreed.

Afterwards, at the bilateral meeting with Hungarian counterparts, the talks focused on the innovations since the last joint meeting held in March this year. Hungarian side informed our delegates on the analysis of their work and the current status of their nuclear energy facilities, which is a part of the activity conducted in the EU and will be repeated every six years.

The meeting was also an opportunity to discuss the action plan to develop further the joint network of activity reporting and coordinating.
