ICRP 60 revision

["Björn Cedervall" <bjorn_cedervall@hotmail.com>]

I am reading the article "ICRP consults..." (NRPB Bulletin, April 
1999:9-10). The context is a proposed (less complex) revision of the 
radiation protection recommendations of ICRP 60. The approach should be the 
protection of individuals against the dangers from single sources.
In the second column, second paragraph, there is a sentence "There may not 
be a need to distinguish between 'practices' and 'interventions', nor to 
distinguish between different categories of exposure. In addition, there may 
no longer be a need to differentiate between occupational, public and 
medical exposures.

My question is what "different categories of exposure" means. Thanks for any 
comments in advance.
