In accordance with the NNR Act the holder of a nuclear installation licence must establish a Public Safety Information Forum to inform the persons living in the relevant municipal area in respect of which an emergency plan has been established in terms of section 38(1) of the Act on nuclear safety and radiation safety matters related to the relevant nuclear installation. The public safety information forum must conduct all meetings open to any member of the public at a minimum frequency of one meeting per quarter.
