As a result of the Toulouse catastrophe of the 21st September 2001, a new law on the Prévention of Technological and Natural Risks has introduced the creation of "Local Committees for Information and Concerted Actions". The aim of the Local Committees is to promote debates on technological risks among the stakeholders and increase transparency in the decision-making process related to risks resulting in particular from "Seveso" industrial sites.
