title: Radiation protection--a look to the future: ICRP perceptions.
abstract: The author was invited to talk about ICRP perceptions of a look to the future. Many questions will be addressed when the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) initiates a revision of its basic recommendations from 1977, which were published in ICRP Publication 26. This process will take several years, and in the meantime the author does not expect any major changes in the present policy of the commission. It is still too early to predict the commission's future policy but, to some extent, present trends might be extrapolated, as indicated in this discussion.
