The stream of visitors does not stop, despite the temperatures on the ITER construction site. Last week, a visit to ITER was organized through the Italian Chamber of Commerce for France in Marseille for 50 members of a Franco-Italian delegation in collaboration with Agence Iter France and the ITER Organization.

Then, a delegation of the Institut de Radioprotection et de Sûreté et Nucléaire visited CEA Cadarache and the ITER site. Carlos Alejaldre, Director of Safety and Security gave them presentations of ITER. On the 8 July, the President of the Conseil Général des Hautes Alpes, Jean- Yves Dusserre, came to visit ITER. He was welcomed by Francois Gauché, the Director of Agence ITER France, who presented progress on construction, and Kaname Ikeda, Director-General of ITER Organization, who presented the ITER project.
