The objective of these Regulations is to ensure that radioactive waste is managed in a manner that protects human health and the environment now and in the future, without imposing undue burdens on future generations. To this end, these provisions: (a) provide the arrangements for safety in radioactive waste management to protect workers and the general public against the dangers arising from ionising radiation; (b) apply to all stages of radioactive waste management, from generation to disposal, when the radioactive waste results from civilian activities; (c) provide for the necessary public information and participation in relation to radioactive waste management while having due regard to security and proprietary information. The measures and procedures laid down under these Regulations are additional to those mentioned in Basic Safety Standards for Ionising Radiation Regulations.
