From the publication:
CURRENT EVALUATION OF THE CHERNOBYL REACTOR ACCIDENT RELEASE Background 1996 marks the tenth anniversary of the Chernobyl accident. The NEA Committee on Radiation Protection and Public Health (CRPPH) has prepared for that occasion an authoritative collective statement on the situation at Chernobyl, reviewing the current state of knowledge regarding the short-term and long-term health impact of the accident, discussing remaining problems (e.g., land contamination, population exposure), and presenting the lessons learned by the OECO Member countries in terms of radiation protection infrastructure and emergency preparedness. In order to make a full assessment of health effects, the CRPPH needed to consider dosimetrie assessment. This implied, possibly, are evaluation of the magnitude of the Chernobyl accidental release. The CRPPH asked the Committee on the Safety of Nuclear Installations (CSNI) and the Principal Working Group ort the Confinement of Accidental Radioactive Releases (PWG-4) to discuss this matter and come up, if necessary, with revised, estimates for the release.
