AbstractAbstract
[en] A new body has been created: the COCT, the guidance council on working conditions. The COCT will take part into the elaboration of decrees and laws related to security at work, it will allow for consultation with social partners and experts, it will deal with radiation protection issues, it is an advisory body made up of 6 commissions. A new organisation of radioprotection is being studied. This new organisation is the consequence of the transposition into French law of the European directive 2013/59/EURATOM that sets the basic standards for the protection of the workers against ionizing radiations. For instance a person called 'radiation protection counsellor' is proposed to replace the ancient 'qualified person in radioprotection' in enterprises, its missions will be enlarged and defined in a new decree. (A.C.)

AbstractAbstract
[en] This report contains an evaluation of data available about the deleterious effects of exposure of people to ionising radiation, assuming that the total exposure is low (low dose) or that exposure to dose takes place gradually (low dose rate). It is a revision of the 1985 Health Council report on 'The scientific foundations for radiation protection policy based on the UNSCEAR-77, -82, and BEIR reports'. The report is also meant to be a reply to a request for advice made by the Minister of Welfare, Public Health and Culture in 1989. Scientific opinion on induction of cancer by radiation has clearly changed since 1988. This is a consequence of new publications of epidemiological studies among survivors of the atomic explosions of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The Committee that has produced the present report has paid much attention to this development. Besides, in the request for advice just mentioned it is asked whether the margins of uncertainty which complicated the quantitative assessment of the radiation risk can be reduced. Consequently the Committee has dealt extensively with the potential errors and uncertainties in available data. Especially these 2 elements - a careful consideration of a recent shift in scientific opinion and a constant attention for the magnitude of potential uncertainties - have had a predominant influence on the content and design of this report. The Committee has tried to answer as fully as possible the complex question how to transform results of scientific research into a well-organised data set on which the government can base its radiation protection policy. The Committee had also compared its evaluation to the recent recommendations of the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) and the points of view of the Dutch policy directive 'Dealing with radiation risks'.

AbstractAbstract
[en] This is the final report II to amend the guideline /BfS 05/; it describes model investigations in two sites, i.e. urban areas in the city of Oranienburg and a backwater area of the river Rhine in the lower Rhine region (Rheinberger Altrehein). The Oranienburg site is dominated by thorium, which makes it different from other contaminated sites where uranium or radium prevail, but it is a typical example of soil contamination in an abandoned industrial site in urban areas. The Rheinberger Altrhein site is a sedimentation area for effluents of coal mining, and the soils in this area are contaminated with significant concentrations of radium. The site was selected because radium contamination occurs also elsewhere in Germany but there have been hardly any systematic investigations so far. The data from earlier investigations and the new findings provided a knowledge base for investigating aspects of the application of the BglBb and the corresponding guideline /BfS 05/. (orig.)

Im vorliegenden Abschlussbericht II zur Weiterentwicklung des Leitfadens /BfS 05/ werden modellhafte Untersuchungen an 2 Standorten beschrieben. Als Modellgebiete wurden Flaechen im Stadtgebiet Oranienburg und eine Flaeche am Rheinberger Altrhein im Niederrheingebiet gewaehlt. Das Stadtgebiet Oranienburg stellt mit einer ueberwiegend durch Thorium dominierten Altlast einen Fall dar, der sich von den sonstigen Hinterlassenschaften mit uran- oder radiumdominierten Kontaminationen deutlich unterscheidet und als typisches Beispiel einer industriellen Hinterlassenschaft in einem staedtischen Umfeld anzusehen ist. Das Gebiet am Rheinberger Altrhein ist Sedimentationsgebiet fuer Ableitungen des Steinkohlenbergbaus und weist als solches eine deutliche Radiumkontamination der Boeden in Ueberschwemmungsgebieten auf. Dieses Gebiet wurde ausgewaehlt, da Radiumkontaminationen von Gewaessersedimenten mehrfach in Deutschland vorkommen, es andererseits dazu aber fuer diese spezifische Kontamination bisher wenig systematische Untersuchungen gibt. Durch Auswertung von Datenbestaenden aus verschiedenen Voruntersuchungen und ergaenzt durch vorhabensbezogene Untersuchungen konnte fuer beide Gebiete auf einen umfangreichen Kenntnisstand zurueckgegriffen werden. Diese Kenntnisse und Daten wurden genutzt, um Aspekte der Anwendung der BglBb und des dazu erarbeiteten Leitfadens /BfS 05/ zu untersuchen. (orig.)Original Title

AbstractAbstract
[en] Any entity (enterprise, laboratory, university, hospital,...), in which ionising radiations are used or produced, has to hire a person competent in radiation protection (PCR). This person has 6 main missions: 1) assessing the risks, 2) taking adequate protection measures, 3) delimiting risk areas around radiation sources (zoning), 4) informing and training the staff, 5) ensuring the dosimetric follow-up of the workers, and 6) ensuring the adequate follow-up of the equipment (periodic controls, maintenance). In France between 8000 and 15000 PCRs operate and most work partially in this activity. According to the sector where they work, PCRs' profiles can be very different: from technician to engineer but all have passed the same specific certification. Now, the new law imposes 3 levels of certification according to the risks involved in the sector: for instance the lowest level for the transport sector and the highest level for the management of radioactive wastes. (A.C.)

AbstractAbstract
[en] Radioactivity and ionizing radiation are relevant in a multitude of life domains, and their applications are rapidly increasing worldwide. That is why presently among the IRPA Associate Societies the development of ''Guidelines for a culture in radiation protection'' is discussed. This contribution summarizes the state of the discussion, gives a first definition of what is meant with ''radiation protection culture'', and treats all four aspects of radiation protection culture: the content ones, the categoric/practical ones, the societal ones, and the spatially and temporally traditional ones.

AbstractAbstract
[en] The paper begins by mentioning the established policy of the Government of Malaysia vis-a-vis protection against ionizing radiations as embodied in the Radioactive Substances Act 1968 and, later, the atomic Energy Licensing Act 1984. Then it turns to on the major events that influences the past, the present and the future development of the radiation protection regulations in Malaysia. it concludes with a vision where future Malaysia is seen drifting towards a consensus effort in radiation protection rendering self regulation the order of the day.
