Natural Resources committee  Yes. In doing so, could I refer to a comment made by Mr. Murphy? He rightly pointed out that in some countries the amount provided by insurers is comparable, but the liability imposed on the operator is very different and higher. In addition, in the case of the country I live in, Sweden, the insurance market can cover €700 million, which is about $1,100 million Canadian.

However, I would say that the comparison with the Paris Convention is relevant because the Paris Convention sets a base for developed economies with major nuclear programs of what is considered a reasonable minimum level of responsibility by the industry.

Natural Resources committee  Thank you, and thank you very much for inviting me to appear before your committee today. I've been working with nuclear liability and compensation issues for about 20 years, mainly in the context of the international conventions and the development of national legislation in Europe.
