That is exactly correct, France has never been know to be particularly  
forthcoming with
all the details on safety violations and problems in their plants. They are  
in the position now
of being completely reliant upon nuclear power because of their high  
percentage of use, and a major scandal closing plants would be devastating. 
They  
also could damage their technology sales to other countries if these facts  
became public knowlege.
