Just after your quote:

> EdF responded that it "assumes full responsibility for the technical and financial aspects of dismantling its nuclear plants," and noted that it was currently decommissioning nine reactors, so had a good basis of experience. It also pointed out that its funds set aside for decommissioning were audited by the Ministry of the Environment, Energy and the Sea the previous month.

And, a little bit earlier, the article author's assesment:

> There are well-developed plans for dismantling these (which have been shut down since 1990 or before) and work is progressing.

Please don't cherry-pick articles.
