§ Baroness Miller of Chilthorne Domerasked Her Majesty's Government:
What changes to the existing regulatory regime they plan to make as a result of the recent report of the Committee Examining Radiation Risks of Internal Emitters. [HL4837]
§ Lord WhittyMinisters received copies of the Committee Examining Radiation Risks of Internal Emitters' final report on 20 October, along with advice on it from the Committee on Medical Aspects of 127WA Radiation in the Environment, whose report was also published on 20 October. These are complex reports on important technical issues, which we are currently considering in conjunction with colleagues in the Department of Health, the National Radiological Protection Board and the Environment Agency to ensure that the points made by CERRIE are fully taken into account in future assessments of radiation risks from internal emitters
