Workshop reports of the PROTECT project


Workshop 1 - Regulatory approaches and requirements

The workshop was held with environmental regulators, NGOs and some industry representation (although the focus of this first workshop was to elicit views from regulators). The aim was to discuss and explore in more detail areas relating to the protection of the environment and in particular obtain views on the following:

...

  1. Justification for regulating the nuclear industry
  2. Alignment of chemical and radioactive substances regulation
  3. Appropriate targets for protection
  4. Demonstration of compliance against protection goals
  5. Credibility of currently suggested benchmark values for ionising radiation and appropriateness of methods used to derive them
  6. Treatment of background exposure within assessments

The workshop report records discussions during the meeting and does not necessarily reflect the views of members of the PROTECT consortium and no attempt has been made to comment on (or 'correct') the discussions.
