Indemnification of Damage in the Event of a Nuclear Accident : Workshop Proceedings: Bratislava Slovak Republic 18 20 May 2005 These workshop proceedings assess the third party liability and compensation mechanisms that would be implemented by participating countries in the event of a nuclear accident taking place within or near their borders. To do so two fictitious accident scenarios were developed: one involving a fire in a nuclear installation located in the Slovak Republic and resulting in the release of significant amounts of radioactive materials off site and the other a fire on board a ship transporting enriched uranium hexafluoride along the Danube River. The first scenario was designed to involve the greatest possible number of countries with the second being restricted to countries with a geographical proximity to the Danube. These proceedings contain the papers presented at the workshop as well as reports on the discussion sessions held.
