“The number of children and grandchildren with cancer in their bones, with leukemia in their blood, or with poison in their lungs might seem statistically small to some, in comparison with natural health hazards. But this is not a natural health hazard—and it is not a statistical issue. The loss of even one human life, or the malformation of even one baby—who may be born long after we are gone—should be of concern to us all. Our children and grandchildren are not merely statistics toward which we can be indifferent.”

John F. Kennedy, July 26th, 1963

Japan increases support to Fukushima clean up but TEPCO retains management role

From: Enformeable Nuclear News

Originally, Tokyo Electric was to be held liable for all costs stemming from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster, but in September the Japanese government stepped in and began providing financial help.  Now the clean-up and rebuilding of affected areas around the Fukushima Daiichi plant are the responsibility of the Japanese Government, while Tokyo Electric is responsible for compensation claims which are brought forward due to the disaster.
A statement released by the Nuclear Emergency Response Headquarters estimated that the decontamination costs near the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant will cost at least $24 billion USD.
