Short summary
For specialists, the tool Safety Case (in the German site selection procedure: Sicherheitsuntersuchung) is an established instrument for supporting safety-relevant decisions in a stepwise disposal programme. Actors, affected individuals and interested persons have different notions and value judgements about it, though. In the TRANSENS project, it is planned to reveal these notions and judgements and, if possible, to derive conclusions about optimising the safety case concept.
