The Society for Radiological Protection - Services - Application for Funding (International Working Group)

The Overseas Standards Support Scheme

An initiative to provide funding to individuals who have been nominated as the UK representatives of international working groups.

The Society recognises the importance of having authoritative Standards and Guidance in radiation protection and related areas. It further recognises the value of this being achieved at European and International level. The input by professionals to such Standards and Guidance formation and promulgation is crucial. The Society has therefore set up a scheme to provide funding opportunities for aiding participation of appointed UK expert representatives in the development and formulation of European and International Standards and Guidance.

Applications for funding under this scheme are invited at any time. However, funding is limited and, within each year, applicants will be treated on a first come, first served, basis. In any case, applications should be made as early as possible, recognising that up to two months may be needed to reach a decision.

Each case will be considered on its own merits, taking into account the following guidelines, which outline the scope and limitations of potential funding.

The applicant must be attending an international working group with a significant radiation protection benefit for the UK.
Potential funding support will be limited to travel and subsistence.
The applicant must have exhausted all other possible funding sources.
Where it is envisaged that attendance may continue beyond the initial year of funding, this must be stated at the outset. Funding for subsequent years will be subject to annual review and approval.
Funding will be limited to a maximum of £500 per person per year.

The scheme is administered by the Awards Committee, who will work within the annual budget approved by Council. Operation of the scheme is subject to annual review.
