The Prime Minister of Tanzania Hon. Kassim Majaliwa officially inaugurated the Second Joint Meeting of SADC’s Nuclear Regulators Network and the fifth Steering Committee of the Project “Support to Southern African States in Nuclear Safety and Safeguards” (Project MC 5.01/15 B). Mr. Majaliwa greeted the 40 plus participants coming from 16 countries and international organizations from Africa, Europe and Central Asia, who gathered at the city of Arusha, headquarters of the Tanzanian Atomic Energy Commission (TAEC). The Prime Minister thanked ISTC for choosing the United Republic of Tanzania to host “this special event.” “Similarly, I wish to extend my deep appreciation to the EU for the continuous support in ensuring that the nuclear safety, security and safeguards in the region are reinforced”, the prime minister stressed. He also recalled: “the transportation of nuclear and other radioactive material is a global concern and not a one-country issue. It is therefore important for the SADC region to have harmonized guidelines for nuclear material safety and security.”
