Japan nuke operator says obsession with minor safety steps delayed severe accident measures

Tokyo Electric Power Co. is struggling to reform itself, and earlier this year launched an internal reform task force, led by company president Naomi Hirose, to find out what caused the disasters and compile improvement plans.

absolute need for complete transparency and rigid adherence to
safety, before profit, throughout the nuclear industry.
