has the responsibility as the one and only institution dedicated to the
comprehensive research and development of nuclear energy-
related technology in the country;
makes full use of our human resources and research facilities in
responding to Fukushima-Daiichi NPPs accident, aiming at the
greatest possible contribution, and
continues to be involved in the restoration effort from the accident
from a mid- and long-term perspective.
