A European reflection on the revision of the System of Radiological Protection

Abstract

Abstract

This paper provides HERCA's reflections on the revision of the system of radiological protection. HERCA has identified four key areas of improvements of importance for HERCA members. These are simplification of the system of RP, justification and optimisation, use of reference levels, radon and communication. The paper elaborates the need for change identified in these four areas as well as in regard to a few other issues.
