FALLOUT IN AUSTRALIA
Report Before House (NJ!. Press Assn.—Copyright) CANBERRA. August 8 The risks to Australians from nuclear test fallout are insignificant, a report by the National Radiation Advisory Committee says. The report was tabled in the House of Representatives today by the Prime Minister (Mr Menzies) who called its publication ‘•opportune" and •‘reassuring.” He said the report showed that fallout from all nuclear tests before last September had added only negligibly to natural background radiation over Australia and that fallout from tests since then would, on limited information. probably be no more significant than that from all the orevious tests.
