G/R.29

Report consisting of 6 parts, as follows:
(PART I) HUMAN GENETICS
Report gives recommendation as to the kind of human mutations which could
be scored: several dominant autosomal genes should be investigated (gives list
of such genetical abnormalities).
PART (0) PLANT GENETICS
Gives plan of research to be organized.
(PART III) RADIOBIOLOGICAL UNIT IN THE UNIVERSITY OF ADELAIDE
To be established.
(PART IV) NATURAL RADIATION BACKGROUND AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONTAMINATION
Describes future organization of investigations on natural radiation background
and contamination; radioactivity of food will be determined.

(PART V) OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE IN AUSTRALIA
Describes monitoring system in application since 1940 and summarizes observations done by the use of film badges (gives statement of per centof
personnel having received a specified per cent of the permissible dosage).
