They provide detailed guidance on the establishment of emergency response teams, the development of emergency plans, the acquisition and deployment of appropriate equipment, the establishment of communication channels, the coordination of activities among different stakeholders, and the monitoring of the emergency situation.
Furthermore, the Safety Requirements emphasize the importance of international cooperation and coordination in responding to nuclear or radiological emergencies. They encourage governments to establish and maintain effective communication channels with their international counterparts, as well as to participate in international exercises and training programs to enhance their preparedness and response capabilities.
In conclusion, this publication serves as a vital tool for governments, emergency response organizations, and other stakeholders to ensure an adequate level of preparedness and response to nuclear or radiological emergencies. By incorporating the latest experience and developments in the field, it aims to enhance the overall effectiveness of response efforts and minimize the potential risks and consequences associated with such emergencies.
