Taipei, March 30 (CNA) There is no definite timetable as to when the No. 2 reactor at Taiwan’s Second Nuclear Power Plant in New Taipei City will be reactivated, Premier Lai Ching-te (賴清德) said on Friday in response to the reactor’s automatic shutdown one day after it was put into operation.

Lai told a legislative hearing that safety will not be sacrificed in the rush to meet electricity demands.

In order for a restart to be authorized, a review must be assessed based on the highest safety standards, he said.

On Wednesday, the nuclear power plant’s No. 2 reactor automatically shut down, a day after it resumed operations following a suspension of nearly two years.    [FULL  STORY]
