This section provides information on the general licence conditions which are applied to all management licences.
There are two general conditions.
Firstly, there is a condition which requires a management licence holder to comply with certain requirements in relation to the acquisition and disposal of radioactive material and X-ray units.
Secondly, there is a condition which requires a management licence holder to notify the department of certain types of radiation incidents.
Any person who conducts a radiation practice must hold a management licence (unless exempt from that requirement). The management licence is subject to the conditions specified in the licence. The management licence holder must not knowingly, recklessly or negligently fail to comply with every condition of their licence.
Failure to comply with a condition of licence is an indictable offence under the Radiation Act 2005.
Radiation - notification of acquisition
Your management licence requires you to notify the department when you acquire a radiation source such as an X-ray unit or sealed source.
Disposal of radioactive material and X-ray equipment
Certain requirements must be met if a management licence permits the disposal of radioactive material or X-ray equipment. Learn more about the licence holder’s obligations for disposing radioactive material and X-ray equipment.
