Objective
Scientific laboratories within the member states of the European Economic Community (EEC) have a continuing interest in the use and development of both thermoluminescent dosimeters and thermoluminescence measurement techniques for the assessment of exposure from environmental gamma radiation. In the United Kingdom, for example, environmental thermoluminescent dosimeters have been developed by the National Radiological Protection Board (NRPB) and used in a national survey of indoor radiation exposure. Other laboratories in various member states are currently involved in similar studies of natural radiation exposure or are using thermoluminescent dosimeters for environmental measurements at reactor sites. Therefore, it is appropriate that such laboratories have facilities within the European Community for standardisation and intercomparison of their environmental measurement techniques.
Ten European laboratories were invited to participate in previous intercomparison studies conducted in 1984 and 1985. These studies, sponsored by the Commission of the European Communities (CEC) and organised by NRPB, proved valuable in identifying and rectifying many problems associated with environmental measurements. The objectives of this intercomparison were to provide the participants with the opportunity to have their environmental dosimeters exposed at various and different sites, to enable a quantitative comparison of different types and designs of thermoluminescent dosimeter, to establish a forum for the discussion of topics of mutual interest in the field of environmental gamma dosimetry.

Funding Scheme
Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.
