The Nuclear Regulatory Authority (NRA) is an effectively independent Regulatory Authority that was established by an Act of Parliament in August 2015 (Act 895, 2015). The mandate of the NRA is to ensure the peaceful application of IONIZING and NON-IONIZING radiation sources and devices in a safe and secure manner without limiting the benefits to mankind. Before the NRA was established, the Ghana Atomic Energy Commission (GAEC) was responsible for carrying out this Regulatory function through the Radiation Protection Board.
