  1. Role of Industry Associations in Contributing to Source Security Paul Wynne – Director & General Manager Working Group on Radioactive Source Security

  2. Security - Responsibilities • The primary responsibility for security rests with national governments – Member States • IAEA role in developing & harmonizing policies, laws and regulations • Users/Operators are responsible for the implementation of laws, regulations and best practice obligations.

  3. Security – Aims for this presentation • Engagement. The benefits of engagement with interested parties including industry associations. Security culture • Education & Communication.

  18. Security – Alternative Technologies

  19. Security – Alternative Technologies

  20. Security – Gamma & X-Ray • The flux of photons have similar properties • X-ray targets convert electrons to photons • Photons – isotopic v directional • Dose rate and dose uniformity ratio (DUR) • Incremental doses

  21. Security – Concluding Thoughts • Keep us updated and informed and we will share the news • Invite us / our members to engage and I believe that you are rewarded with practical suggestions that improve outputs • A security culture delivers more than compliance • Recognize that operators that work together & attend industry gatherings have a desire to learn, to engage and to contribute • Consider how you engage with MS’s that are not present
