Protection against radiation
Directive 96/29/Euratom has provisions concerning basic safety standards for the protection of the health of workers and the general public against the dangers arising from ionizing radiation.
This Directive shall apply to all practices which involve a risk from ionizing radiation emanating from an artificial source or from a natural radiation source in cases where natural radionuclides are or have been processed in view of their radioactive, fissile or fertile properties. All these practices have to be reported, excepting certain cases specified in the directive.
Prior authorization is necessary for certain specific practices, which involve a risk from ionizing radiation emanation including: the deliberate administration of radioactive substances to persons, and the exposure of persons for medical treatment and the use of accelerators except electron microscopes.
The disposal, recycling or reuse of radioactive substances or materials containing radioactive substances arising from any practice subject to the requirement of reporting or authorization is subject to prior authorization, excepting when they comply with clearance levels established by national competent authorities.
