Posted By Richard Forster Does anyone know of Individuals or Organisations who provide the above service? We are a London Education Authority with 16 sites utilising low level sources. Our understanding is that the RPA and RPS of old are not likely to suffice when the Ionising Radiations Regulations are fully implemented. I have tried CLEAPSS but of the three contacts I was given, 2 were based up North and not interested, the third didn't provide any service! Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted By John Dodson Richard, At present we provide the RPA Service internally but that is unlikely to be practical after 2004. However, CLEAPSS is considering whether it will be able to provide this service. In my view this is likely to be the way forward for LEAs. They distributed letter on this dated April 12. Or is your concern how you will provide the RPA in the meantime? John

Posted By Laurie Richard I use an organisation called the Scottish Schools Equipment Research Centre, which is absolutely first class. There must surely be something similar down south Laurie

Posted By Ken Taylor We have found the Radiological Protection Centre at St George's Hospital SW17 very reasonable. Contact Zeenat Shah on 020 8725 1050/1051.
