The Atomic Energy and Radiation Protection Act, No.5 of 2005 was enacted in May 2005 to provide for the adequate protection of the environment and of people in current and future generations against the harmful effects of radiation. The objects of the Act are:
- Minimize the exposure of persons and the environment in Namibia to the effects of harmful radiation;
- Ensure that adequate control is exercised over the possession, production, processing, sale, export and import of radiation sources and nuclear material;
