TITEL Briefwisseling tussen de Regering van liet Koninkrijk der Nederlanden en de Internationale Organisatie voor Atoomenergie houdende een overeenkomst betreffende een bijeenkomst van 29 juni tot 1 juli 1983 te Leiden van de adviesgroep inzake de toepassing van de analyse van chromosoomafwijkingen ten behoeve van biologische dosimetrie; Wenen, 14 april en 20 mei 1983 B. TEKST Nr. I INTERNATIONAL ATOMIC ENERGY AGENCY Jl-AG-419 Sir, I have the honour to inform you that the International Atomic Energy Agency is planning to hold an Advisory Group Meeting on the Use of Chromosomal Aberrations Analysis in Biological Dosimetry from 29 June - 1 July This meeting is within the programme of activities of the IAEA's Coordinated Research Programme on Chromosomal Abberrations Analysis (C.A.A.). The purpose of the meeting is to provide a forum for discussions and exchanging views on C.A.A. as a biological dosimetric tool potentially

2 capable of assessing overexposures to ionizing radiation, particularly in situations in which physical dosimetric data are not easy to obtain. In this connection it has been pointed out by the chief investigators participating in the latest Research Coordination Meeting that C.A.A. could be of special interest in cases of large overexposures, which must not occur in normal operations, but could occur in undesired abnormal conditions. It has been suggested that the advisory Group Meeting could take place in the Netherlands, at the Department of Radiation Genetics and Chemical Mutagenesis of the Silvius Laboratory, State University of Leiden, which is one of the frontrunner laboratories in Radiation Cytogenetics. The meeting could be held from June 29 to July 1, About eight experts from IAEA Member States are expected to attend the meeting. The working language of the meeting will be English. I have the honour to enquire whether your Government would be prepared to host the meeting in question, in which event your Government would be expected to make the following arrangements which are similar to all meetings held away from the Headquarters of the Agency. 1. With regard to the meeting the Agreement on the Privileges and Immunities of the IAEA of 1st July 1959 shall apply. 2. The Government of the Netherlands shall grant free of charge visas and necessary facilities to the participants of the meeting. Annex A contains a list of Member States to be invited to participate. 3. The Government of the Netherlands shall exercise all reasonable care to ensure security on the premises in which the meeting takes place and to ensure the safety of the officials of the Agency and participants concerned while on such premises. The Government shall take whatever steps may be reasonably required in the circumstances to ensure such security and such safety, including such supervision of the premises as may be warranted. Should your Government wish to host the meeting in question, I should appreciate receiving in writing your Government's agreement on the above enumerated points at your earliest convenience so as to enable the Secretariat to proceed with timely arrangements. Mr. A. Bianco, of the Division of Nuclear Safety, who is the scientific secretary of the Coordinated Research Programme, has already discussed this matter informally with Mr. Natarajan of the Leiden University. Mr. Natarajan has agreed in principle to assist the Agency in holding this meeting.
