Ionising Radiations Regulations 2017 (IRR17) Guidance - Part 6 - Arrangements for the control of radioactive substances, articles and equipment

Apart from the critical examination of radiation generators, most of part 6 has certain parallels with UK environmental legislation for the keeping and use of radioactive materials (both sealed and unsealed). The various UK regulators (e.g. HSE and Environment Agency in England) have agreed there is no need for two separate record keeping systems - one system can be designed to meet all requirements.
