The Radiation Protection Authority wishes to inform its Licensees and the general public that
effective 19th April 2024, statutory fees have been adjusted to increase the fee unit value from
Thirty to Forty Ngwee in accordance with the Treasury and Financial Management Circular
No. 12 of 2024, and Fees and Fines (Fee and Penalty Unit Value) (Amendment) Regulations,
2024.
The Ionising Radiation Protection (General) (Amendment) Regulations, 2014 imposes fees that
are expressed in fee units which shall therefore be converted into Kwacha using the new value
of the unit fee. E.g. where the law imposes 2,500 fee units for assessment or inspection of
diagnostic x-ray unit, the Kwacha equivalent will now be 2,500 x 0.40 = K1,000 as opposed to
the old fee of 2,500 x 0.30 = K750.
In view of the above, the Authority hereby requests that you take note of this adjustment and
make necessary arrangements to accommodate the new (increased) fees.
