Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2003, publiée 92ème session CIT (2004)

Convention (n° 115) sur la protection contre les radiations, 1960 - Norvège (Ratification: 1961)

Article 8 of the Convention. Further to its observation and with reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes the Government’s indication that the new regulations to be issued in application of Act No. 36 of 12 May 2000 on Radiation Protection and the Use of Radiation comprise a number of requirements previously set out in technical provisions, including dose limits for non-radiation workers, which shall not exceed 1 mSv per year. The Committee while noting that this dose limit would comply with the dose limit recommended by the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) in its 1990 Recommendations for non-radiation workers, hopes that the regulations will be adopted in a near future in order to give effect to this Article of the Convention. It requests the Government to supply a copy of the new regulations once they have been adopted for in-depth examination.
