The latest notice says the measure has entered into force.
Draft Decree amending Decree No 358/2016 on requirements for quality assurance and technical safety and assessment and verification of conformity of selected equipment
10 DECREE of 8 January 2026 amending Decree No 358/2016 on requirements for quality assurance and technical safety and assessment and verification of conformity of selected equipment; was adopted on 8 January 2026, published on 23 January 2026 and came into force on 1 February 2026.

This is equipment for which compliance with technical requirements was not adequately assessed, inadequate tests were carried out with varying degrees of planning or intent, inadequate documents were produced, and this equipment was subsequently delivered and deployed in the operation of the nuclear installation as fully-fledged and fully legally compliant selected equipment. • Changes in conformity assessment procedures (e.g. the operator of the nuclear installation, and thus of selected equipment, is accepted as a conformity assessment body for its own needs. This concept was introduced by the aforementioned amendment to the Atomic Act and is further developed in the Decree). • Newly established framework requirements for persons carrying out conformity assessments. • Amendments to the annexes to the Decree, namely in specific areas of technical requirements, where individual requirements are clarified, as well…
