Learning from Experience: Radioactive Materials Transport
13 December 2023, Glasgow
The Non-Nuclear Industrial Committee has organised this one-day technical meeting, which will take place the day after the Scottish Committee event, to provide an opportunity to learn about the transport of radioactive materials across various non-nuclear and nuclear sectors.  The day will include providing experiences of both ONR and a wide variety of duty holders who have been subject to ONR Transport Compliance Inspections that have resulted in enforcement action being taken, how duty holders have addressed the issues/non-compliances, along with lessons learnt from RPA’s/DGSA’s experience of advising transport duty holders.  View the programme and book your place.

To exhibit for both days of this event it will cost £525 plus VAT for Affiliated Organisation members and £700 plus VAT for non-Affiliated Organisation members.

This is a popular event to exhibit at and there are limited spaces so booking early is advised to avoid disappointment.
