City Mayor Tamotsu Baba, accompanied by lawyers on Wednesday filed an application to the Centre for resolution of disputes regarding damage caused by a nuclear accident.
Tokyo Denreku company, which operates the nuclear power plant emergency, "Fukushima Dai-ichi," pays monthly evacuated about a thousand dollars. In turn, the people who were forced to evacuate, believe that the compensation does not meet adequately the suffering that it has caused this unprecedented nuclear accident. They require a payment of about $ 3,500 per month, as well as reviewing existing regulations.
