## Description

This project is part of the radiological programme that includes monitoring and assessing the impact on the food chain of radiological discharges\. The programme includes the monitoring for levels of radioactivity in food and the predictive modelling of exposure\.

The results of the work inform and are essential to the production of the annual Radioactivity in Food and the Environment report\.
