This study will helo establish dose estimates irom the tine

of the incidence to the presenc, and will complemenc the aerial

survey for external radiacon neasuremencts, over these islands,
which has Seen completed.
Together they should present a re-

iiable picture of doses received sv che populations and also

enable dose estimates to be projected into che future.
