| Abstract |
Aimed at employers working with ionising radiation, it explains how a radiation employer can comply with the requirements in regulation 5 of the Ionising Radiations Regulations 1999 (IRR99) for authorisation of certain practices. It also describes the system of generic authorisation under which radiation employers may be exempt from the requirement. Regulations 5 comes into effect on 13 May 2000. Contents: Introduction; What is prior authorisation? Practices that need authorisation; How will the generic authorisation system work? How can I get a copy of the generic authorisations? What if I need an individual prior authorisation? Does authorisation replace notification? Other types of authorisation; Prior authorisation for the use of accelerators (other than electron microscopes); Prior authorisation for the use of electrical equipment intended to produce X-rays; References; Further reading. |
