Causes of death of radiation workers with special reference to plutonium
Description
The Board considered the Commission's view that a survey of all relevant data on workers who have been occupationally exposed to plutonium should be undertaken and that this survey should include all past employees. The Board had reservations about the value of such a survey but accepted that an extended study should be carried out. This would be in association with the Board's Register of Radiation Workers.
