Abstract
ICRP published a draft version of its recommendations for radiological protection in February and organised two international seminars in April in Paris and Luxembourg to present the concepts, biological bases, and practical application. Within the UK, the NRPB is consulting widely on the draft proposals. Comments received by ICRP will be discussed at Main commission meetings in June 1990; at a meeting of the Task Group drafting the recommendations in September 1990; and, if necessary, at a Main Commission further meeting in November 1990. The final test is expected to be published in the first quarter of 1991. The recommendations consist of a main text, supported by three major appendices covering quantities and units; biological effects of ionising radiation; and criteria for judging the significance of the effects of radiation.
