The Convention on Nuclear Safety (CNS) was adopted in June 1994 and entered into force in October 1996. The objectives of the CNS are to achieve and maintain a high level of nuclear safety worldwide.
Contracting parties to the Convention have four obligations: submit a national report for peer review, review the national reports of other contracting parties, respond to questions and comments submitted by the contracting parties, and participate in the Review Meeting.
Seventh Review Meeting of the Contracting Parties to the Convention on Nuclear Safety will be held at the IAEA’s Headquarters in Vienna from 27 March to 7 April 2017.
