Joint Oireachtas Committee on Environment, Culture and the Gaeltacht

Nuclear Power Plants: Discussion with Radiological Protection Institute of Ireland

3:10 pm

Dr. Ann McGarry:

I understand this is a very important issue. The remit of our institute in terms of radiation is to do with ionising radiation but the kind of radiation the Deputy mentioned, that related to EMF, power lines, etc., is non-ionising radiation. Unfortunately, we do not have expertise in that area. Therefore, I am not in a position to answer the Deputy's question on it.
