abstract = "European national emergency response plans have long been focused on accidents at nuclear power plants. This has resulted in well developed, reviewed and exercised plans taking place at these fixed facilities. More recently, the possible threats by disaffected groups have shifted the focus to being prepared for malevolent use of radiation that are aimed at creating disruption and panic in the society. This paper elaborates on some of the challenges inherent to the development of a handbook to respond to the malevolent use of radiation.",
