The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government in its reports of October 1994 and 1996. It also notes the observations made by the Central Ecuatoriana de Organizaciones Clasistas (Ecuadorian Central of Class Organizations) to the effect that provisions on radiation protection should be updated in the light of new knowledge. The Committee notes in this respect the Government's indications that new regulations on radiation safety have been prepared with employers' and workers' representatives. The Committee hopes that the Government will soon report the provisions which have been adopted and are applicable to all activities involving exposure of workers to ionizing radiations in the course of their work and in accordance with the dose limits mentioned in its general observation of 1992, in the light of current knowledge, such as that contained in the 1990 Recommendations of the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) and the Basic Safety Standards for Protection Against Ionizing Radiation and for the Safety of Radiation Sources of 1994, developed under the auspices of the IAEA, ILO and WHO, and three other international organizations, which are based on the ICRP Recommendations.
