Asserting that there is no surmountable problem in the Nuclear Liability Bill, National Security Advisor Shivshankar Menon has said New Delhi hopes to finish the work on the implementation of the Indo-US civilian nuclear bill before the visit of President Barack Obama and then start commercial negotiations.
India intends to sign the Convention on Supplementary Compensation (CSC), Menon said in response to a question from those representing the nuclear companies from the US at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a Washington-based think-tank.
"On the nuclear liability, I think, what we need to do is to work our way through the issue. There are concerns among US companies about how the Indian Act will apply to them and what kind of liability it will mean for suppliers," he said.
Noting that India wants to start the conversation with the companies, he said the lawyers have consistently told the government that this act does not impose any additional obligation on the suppliers.
