This has been recognized by the latest General Conference of the IAEA, which has welcomed the steps taken in developing an international framework for the protection of the environment from ionizing radiation and drawn attention to this conference. Finally, what does the IAEA expect from this conference? The IAEA and the other supporting international organizations expect to receive advice on how they should proceed in establishing an accepted international framework, 51 TANIGUCHI as a basis for the development of international standards for protection of the environment.
27 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY suggested that standards and assessment methodologies that allow for uncertainties should be developed. Comments from floor (overview) The need for more information in order to establish the way in which radiation effects observed at the individual level may be manifested in populations or species was highlighted as a key issue. There is a need to develop a system of protection that allows the uncertainties in the scientific information to be expressed, while being communicable to a wide range of stakeholders.
The Rio Declaration has had a significant impact on policy setting at the international, regional and national levels. In the field of nuclear energy, international conventions and safety standards established since adoption of the Rio Declaration contain explicit statements requiring that the environment (as well as humans) be protected. For example, the Joint Convention on the Safety of Spent Fuel Management and on the Safety of Radioactive Waste Management has the protection of individuals, society and the environment from harmful effects of ionizing radiation as one of its objectives.
