‹ Order of Business Radiological protection Bill
Summary
Peter Fitzpatrick asks when the radiological protection legislation will be published; the Taoiseach says its heads were cleared in July and publication is expected early next year.
When can we expect the publication of the radiological protection Bill? This will put in place the legislative basis required for the merger of the RPI with the EPA and to ensure that Irish legislation is compatible with the terms of the convention on physical protection of nuclear material and nuclear facilities, and that Ireland may ratify this convention.
