NUCLEAR DAMAGE CLAIMS COMMISSION


Where the Central Government,
having regard to the injury or damage caused by a nuclear incident, is of the opinion that it is expedient in
public interest that such claims for such damage be adjudicated by the Commission instead of a Claims
Commissioner, it may, by notification, establish a Commission for the purpose of this Act.
