The SRP has issued a Position Paper which focuses on the implications for radiation protection given the notification of the UK’s withdrawal from the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community (EURATOM).   The Paper focuses on Chapter 3 (Health & Safety) of Title II (Provisions for the encouragement of progress in the field of nuclear energy) of the EURATOM Treaty and summarises the Society’s views and makes suggestions for Government action.

A copy of the Position Paper can be found here.

Further Position Papers will be issued over the coming months, covering the impacts to the Medical Sector, Non-ionising Radiation Protection and wider impacts of exiting EURATOM and the EU.
