Decree No. 10936/1950

Bs As., 31/05/1950

CONSIDERING:

That the progress of research related to atomic energy cannot be unknown by the State, because of the multiple derivations of public order that its practical applications determine or can determine in the future;

That the effects of radioactivity derived from atomic energy require appropriate defensive measures;

That public health can receive enormous benefits from the correct application of radioactivity generated by atomic energy;

That atomic energy can replace the current forms of energy and that this fact could alter the economic and social balance of the country because of the profound modifications that it would determine in the activity of industry, transport, mining, etc., so it is appropriate for the State to take the corresponding forecasting measures;

That it is necessary to coordinate the action of all official and private agencies currently engaged in investigations of this nature within the country, avoiding dispersion and overlapping of efforts;

That the Argentine Republic, careless of any offensive intent, can work in this order of things also with a high sense of peace for the benefit of humanity.

For all of it,
