Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency (ARPANSA) licence holders came together on 2-3 May to discuss proactive safety monitoring and improvements in regulatory practice.
ARPANSA regulates Commonwealth entities that use or produce radiation. The annual Licence Holder Forum provides an opportunity for ARPANSA to engage its licence holders and to share information with them about any regulatory changes.
ARPANSA's Chief Regulatory Officer, Jim Scott, says they engage licence holders at all stages of the licensing process.
'The forum featured an intensive workshop as part of the rollout of ARPANSA's new licence administration portal', Mr Scott said.
'We are particularly proud to be launching the new licence holder portal, as it will improve safety outcomes by making it more efficient for licence holders to meet their obligations and communicate with us.'
