The University of Toronto’s Institutional Radiation Protection Committee (IRPC), formerly the University of Toronto Radiation Protection Authority, is charged with ensuring that all activities conducted at the University of Toronto involving radioactive materials and equipment are conducted in a safe and secure manner and in conformity with the national, provincial, local and University standards. The IRPC is an advisory committee that reports to the Associate Vice-President, Research Oversight and Compliance (AVP-ROC), who acts as the Applicant Authority on behalf of the University and has been delegated authority by the Governing Council to enforce and maintain the required standards of radiation protection at the University. As the oversight committee of the program for radiation protection at the University of Toronto, the IRPC further also serves, in part, as an educational resource to members of the University community.
