EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The principal findings of this Report may be summarized as follows:

Part I: The Basis of the Existing Rules
- The liability of one State to another (state liability) to repair damage caused
by transboundary nuclear pollution is unregulated by international treaty and is 
governed by rules of customary international law and general principles of law.

- The liability of the operator of a nuclear installation for damage caused to third
persons in neighbouring states (civil liability) by transboundary nuclear pollution 
is governed principally by the Paris and Vienna Conventions and the ordinary rules 
of private international law.

Part II: The Deficiencies of the Existing Rules

Generally
- The law governing state liability and civil liability, found as it is in a
combinationof customary international law, general principles of law, at
least two international treaties, and private international law is incoherent,
incomplete, uncertain and therefore not as effective as it might be.
