Joint radiation emergency management plan of the international organizations
This document is the seventh edition of the Joint Radiation Emergency Management Plan of the International Organizations (Joint Plan), which was developed, maintained and cosponsored by member organizations of the Inter-Agency Committee on Radiological and Nuclear Emergencies (IACRNE).
The Joint Plan describes the interagency framework of preparedness for and response to an actual, potential or perceived nuclear or radiological emergency independent of whether it arises from an accident, natural disaster, negligence, nuclear security event or any other cause. The Joint Plan is intended to support and underpin the efforts of national governments and seeks to ensure a coordinated and harmonized international response to nuclear or radiological emergencies. It is not intended to interfere with or replace the emergency preparedness and response arrangements of international organizations (or States).
This Joint Plan describes arrangements operative as of 1 March 2017 and supersedes all previous editions.
