Radiological Protection (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2014: Discussion
1:25 pm
Professor William Reville:
It varies from country to country. A majority have a situation similar to this country where there is an RPII-like institute dealing with radiation. If the country has a nuclear industry it will also deal with the radiological aspects of said industry. The general environment work will be dealt with in a separate institute. That is a common model in Europe. It is not universal but it is common. I think that is the logical way to do it.
