Examination of the controversial nuclear liability bill enters the final lap on Wednesday as the Parliamentary panel seeks expert opinion and begins clause-by- clause analysis of the draft legislation.

A two-day sitting of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Science and Technology, Environment and Forests is expected to hear the views of experts like former Atomic Energy Commission Chairman P K Iyengar, strategist Brahma Chellaney, former diplomat Kanwal Sibal and legal expert Shams Khwaja.

After hearing the experts’ view, the Committee will take up clause-by-clause analysis of the Civil Liability for Nuclear Damages Bill, 2010 which was introduced in the Lok Sabha on 7^th May amid stiff opposition.

The committee is expected to submit its report in time for the bill to be taken up for consideration during the month-long Monsoon Session of Parliament beginning on 26^th July.
