Vol. 416 No. 1
123 Mr. J. O'Keeffe asked the Minister for Energy whether radon measurements have been undertaken in schools in County Cork; and if so, if he will give details of (a) the results and (b) whether any such survey identifies schools in need of further investigation or remedial measures.
Radon measurements, which would be a matter for boards of management to initiate, have not been carried out in schools in County Cork. The Nuclear Energy Board recommends that all boards of management should consider having radon measurements carried out in their schools. If boards decide on such tests they should contact the Nuclear Energy Board, 3 Clonskeagh Square, Clonskeagh Road, Dublin 14, which operates a measurement service at a cost of £15 per radon detector.
