  The Radioactive Waste Management Advisory Committee (RWMAC) was established in 1978 to offer independent advice to Ministers on radioactive waste management issues. Members of the Committee are drawn from a wide range of backgrounds and specialisms including radioactive waste management, radiological protection, earth sciences, environmental law & planning, medical physics and social sciences.

Each year RWMAC undertakes a programme of work commissioned by Government Ministers, it also responds to consultations on relevant issues and maintains an active interest in all aspects of radioactive waste management activities undertaken by UK nuclear site operators and other users of radioactive materials. All of RWMAC's advice to Ministers is published, either in individual reports or in the context of the RWMAC Annual Report.
