Article 102 Implementation of strategies

1. Member States shall assign responsibilities for the implementation of strategies for the management of existing exposure situations, and ensure appropriate coordination between relevant parties involved in the implementation of remedial and protective measures. Member States shall provide as appropriate for the involvement of stakeholders in decisions regarding the development and implementation of strategies for managing exposure situations.

2. The form, scale and duration of all protective measures considered for implementation of a strategy shall be optimised.

3. The distribution of doses that has resulted from the implementation of a strategy shall be assessed. Further efforts shall be considered with the aim of optimising protection and reducing any exposures that are still above the reference level.

4. Member States shall ensure that those responsible for the implementation of a strategy shall regularly:

(a) evaluate the available remedial and protective measures for achieving the objectives and the efficiency of planned and implemented measures;

(b) provide information to exposed populations on the potential health risks and on the available means for reducing their exposure;

(c) provide guidance for the management of exposures at individual or local level;

(d) with regard to activities that involve naturally occurring radioactive material and are not managed as planned exposure situations, provide information on appropriate means for monitoring concentrations and exposures and for taking protective measures.
