One part of this emergency organization is to project near the radiological accident a technical adviser in order to provide support to the local decision makers. The Japanese transposition of this organization was to project a technical adviser at the French Embassy in Tokyo to support the action of the French Ambassador. The local adviser supported the French local emergency organization but also gave in real time, explanations to the French community living in Japan in order to let this community understand the development of the situation.
