Fundamental Nuclear Safety Principles 

Safety underpins China's pursuit of peaceful uses of nuclear energy. China's objective is to meet the needs of the present generation without creating risk for or causing harm to future generations, and to ensure sustainable development of human civilization. 

China's fundamental nuclear safety principles are: putting safety first, and enforcing applicable laws and regulations; focusing on risk prevention, including by implementing a defense-in-depth approach; ensuring clear lines of responsibility and the independence of regulatory authorities; and implementing strict and comprehensive control mechanisms.
