French Polynesia's nuclear test veterans organisation says the debate about the nuclear test compensation law in the French senate shows the law is inadequate.
Moruroa e tatou says the Senators took note that only a dozen of the nearly 900 cases were accepted to be eligible for compensation.
It also says the politicians last year approved an amendment that extended the nuclear fallout zone eligible to file compensation claims to all of French Polynesia.
The organisation says there is still a clause citing negligible risk to justify the rejection of any compensation request.
