8. On the level and quality of the information provided by the GPs to the RCARO:
Almost no contribution from the GPs -

Limited /Unavailable Data/Information
Infrequent updating

9. To efficiently provide RCA information:
Consider the following:
* Accessibility
* CONTENTS < Quality/good data
< Usefulness
< Substance
< Clearly stated
< Correct info

10. Examine the contents (importance, usefulness)
Recommendations:
Examine the contents (importance, usefulness)
* classify < which documents to be opened to
the public (more info should be included)
< which documents for the members only
Need for GPs awareness and vigorous contributions
* commitment of GPs to contribute regularly
< designation of responsible person (GP) to handle
promotions/dissemination of information
< highlight local RCA activities, achievements on
a periodic basis (e.g. quarterly)
< write-ups, news on RCA for clearance of NR
before submission

11. Provide mechanism or process, using internet technologies, in allowing GPs and the IAEA in providing RCA related information
