Abstract

Abstract The Radiation Protection Ordinance implements a recommendation developed by the International Commission on Radiological Protection on terms of granting a practice to be carried out without reporting and prior authorisation, i. e. on conditions of exemption of justified practices from regulatory control. According to this recommendation, a practice may be exempted from regulatory control, if the radiological risk associated with the practice is, under normal conditions as well as in diverging situations, sufficiently low as not to warrant regulatory concern, and there are no reasonable control procedures that can achieve a significant reduction of the radiological risk. This article deals with the radiological criteria for the derivation of exemption values below which regulatory procedures are unwarranted, and goes into further subjects (design approval, consumer goods) for which the concept of exemption is applicable.
