The Committee on Radiation Protection and Public Health (CRPPH) of the OECD Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) has been working for some time to achieve consensus with regard to the directions that the ICRP should follow in the development of new recommendations. The Asian Members of the NEA have actively participated in this process, and are supportive of this work.
-
The principal features of the new recommendations include quantities in radiological protection, biological aspects, the general protection system, quantitative recommendations, optimisation, medical exposures, potential exposures, criteria for exclusion from the recommendations, and radiological protection of the environment. Quantitative aspects will be covered by a report from Committee 2.

am enormously grateful for the opportunity given to me and ICRP to engage with this stakeholder group in order to ensure that we can go forward profitably with the desired new recommendations. As mentioned yesterday we will be asking you all send your comments to ICRP. They will be posted on the ICRP website. All the received comments will be available for you to see.
