[quote:Anonymous Coward 1295673:MV8xNTM3MTQ2XzI5NjM4NTIwX0I3Q0EyQzRB] Japan’s nuclear safety chief apologizes, says country’s regulations are flawed, outdated http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/asia-pacific/japans-nuclear-safety-chief-apologizes-says-countrys-regulations-are-flawed-outdated/2012/02/15/gIQAZCqJFR_story.html (snip) In another revelation showing a lack of expertise among regulators, [b]Nobuaki Terasaka, head of NISA until August, said he has no science or nuclear background [/b]and hardly participated in crisis management at the prime minister’s office. “We lacked sufficient staffing of regulators with technical expertise who could operate in a crisis like that, which involved multiple reactors,” Terasaka said. “When it comes to expertise, knowledge and skill, NISA is weaker than our U.S. counterparts.” Terasaka initially went over to the premier’s office but [b]retreated within hours to NISA, where no live teleconference or hotline was available[/b], he said. ~ b [/quote]
