Summary

The draft specifies the provisions of the Radiation Act so that they correspond to the Euratom Directive and the audit proposals of the International Atomic Energy Agency. As a more important change, the holder of a radiation activity permit will be obliged to submit to the Environmental Board an analysis of events during which a person has received a higher than permitted radiation dose. Currently, the agency only needs to be notified of such an incident. In the European Economic Area contracting state, it will be added to the law the procedure for recognizing the issued radiation activity permit. Currently, the Environmental Board is based on the agreements on the free movement of services and the Code of Economic Activities when recognizing foreign companies, but the Environmental Inspectorate currently does not have the ability to control the radiation activities of these companies. Acknowledgments are issued by letter through the document management system. Euratom Directive of the Council of the European Union, which establishes the basic safety standards for protection against the dangers arising from ionizing radiation exposure, the date of transposition was February 6, 2018. The analysis of the articles of the directive and the transposed provisions revealed the need to specify the law in order to avoid different interpretation options.
