The NRPB era.
Some 40 years ago, in May 1970, the Radiological Protection Bill was passed by the parliament of the United Kingdom. This legislation created the National Radiological Protection Board (NRPB). It lasted 35 years until absorbed by the Health Protection Agency in 2005. During that period, the NRPB discharged its basic duty of protecting the people from radiation hazards.
