Part 2 (General principles and procedures—Regulations 5–13)Regulation 5 requires certain work with ionising radiation to be notified to the Executive. The work which requires notification is a residual category of work; amongst other exclusions, work which arises from practices which require registration under regulation 6 or require a consent under regulation 7 do not require notification.

Part 3 (Arrangements for the management of radiation protection—Regulations 14–16)The Regulations require that employers consult radiation protection advisers in respect of matters specified in Schedule 4 and that employers ensure that adequate information, instruction and training is given to employees and other persons. Employers are required to co-operate by exchanging information to enable compliance by others with requirements to limit the exposure of employees to ionising radiation.

Part 4 (Designated areas—Regulations 17–20)The Regulations—aprovide that areas in which persons need to follow special procedures to restrict exposure or in which persons are likely to receive more than specified doses of ionising radiation be designated as controlled or supervised areas;brestrict entry into controlled areas to specified persons and circumstances;crequire radiation employers to set out appropriate local rules for controlled or supervised areas and to appoint radiation protection supervisors for the purpose of securing compliance with the Regulations;dimpose specified duties upon employers in relation to outside workers;erequire radiation levels to be monitored in controlled or supervised areas and provide for the maintenance and testing of monitoring equipment.

Part 5 (Classification and monitoring of persons—Regulations 21–27)The Regulations require that employees who are likely to receive more than specified doses of ionising radiation be designated as classified persons, that doses received by classified persons be assessed by one or more dosimetry services approved by the Executive and that records of such doses are made and kept for each such person.

Part 6 (Arrangements for the control of radioactive substances, articles and equipment—Regulations 28–34)The Regulations—arequire that where a radioactive substance is to be used as a source of ionising radiation, it should, whenever reasonably practicable, be in the form of a sealed source and that any articles embodying or containing radioactive substances are suitably designed, constructed, maintained and tested;bcover the accounting for, keeping and moving of radioactive substances and require that incidents in which more than specified quantities of radioactive substances escape or are lost or stolen be notified to the Executive;cimpose duties on manufacturers etc. and installers of articles for use in work with ionising radiation to ensure that such articles are designed, constructed and installed so as to restrict, so far as is reasonably practicable, exposure to ionising radiation;dimpose similar duties upon employers in relation to equipment used for medical exposures together with additional duties in relation to the testing and safe operation of such equipment;erequire employers to investigate any defect in medical equipment which may have resulted in a person receiving a dose of ionising radiation much greater than was intended and to notify the Executive of such incidents;fprohibit interference with sources of ionising radiation.

Part 7 (Duties of employees and miscellaneous—Regulations 35–42)The Regulations impose duties upon employees engaged in carrying out work with ionising radiation. The Regulations also—aprovide for the approval of dosimetry services by the Executive;bprovide for a defence on contravention of certain regulations;cprovide for exemptions to be granted by the Executive;dextend the provision of the Regulations outside Northern Ireland;econtain transitional provisions; andfintroduce modifications relating to the Ministry of Defence and visiting forces.
