With the development of the Joint CSNI/CNRA Strategic Plan and the drafting of a CNRA Operating Plan, the need to develop operating guidelines was recognised. These documents along with the Review Report and the CNRA Historical Perspectives report will thus provide an overview that can serve present CNRA members as well as provide a valuable introduction to CNRA work for new delegates to the CNRA and its working groups.
This guideline takes stock of the accumulated experience of the CNRA since its conception and records it for further use or improvement.
This revision of the guidelines has been prepared to take into account a major structural change, the addition of the new Working Group on the Regulation of New Reactors (WGRNR) which was approved by the CNRA at its 19th Annual Meeting, December 2007.
