Ministry of Health conceals the truth about the level of radiation in Belarus

28

Ministry of Health refused to give information about the level of the internal absorbed dose of radiation for the year of 2009.

As BelaPAN was informed by the Chairman of a social ecological public union the “Center for Support of Chernobyl Initiatives”, a corresponding member of the National Academy of Sciences, Professor Ivan Nikitchenka, the talk is about a radiation dose received by means of measuring at a whole-body counter.

“The management of the union only now received a letter from the Ministry of Health with a refusal to the request made in August”, - the scientist said.

Officials of the Ministry of Health motivate their refusal by absence of legal grounds for giving the requested information to the “Center for Support of Chernobyl Initiatives”.

Nikitchenka considers the action of the Ministry of Health as the continuation of the policy of suppression of the aftermath of Chernobyl disaster. According to his words, according the law about the public associations and charter of the “Center for Support of Chernobyl Initiatives” approved by the Ministry of Justice, the social ecological public association has the right to receive the requested information.

Nikitchenka is planning to address one of the capital district courts next week with a suit against the Ministry of Health.
