Design of the first Delphi round Sample Clauses

Design of the first Delphi round. Nanomaterial use is diverse and difficult to speak of in regulatory terms as one kind of material or use, therefore the structure of this first round was set up to explore variation in opinions of risk management adequacy when considering specific classes of material use and material types. During the discussions with the Core Group it was agreed that the first round would ask questions focussing on six MNMs that were considered in the NanoReg project; titanium dioxide, carbon nanotubes, silicon dioxide, barium sulphate, cerium oxide and silver. From discussions, edits and feedback it was agreed that the first Delphi round survey would consist of the following 4 main sections: 1) General information This section aimed to collect general information about participants in relation to the region and sector in which they work. 2) General risk assessment/management The general risk assessment/management section asked participants more specifically about their knowledge of use and management for the six MNMs, where SbD is already in use and what actions would be most effective to improve ability for this. 3) Current uses and risk management for selected MNM There were six subsections on current uses and risk management. Each of these subsections asked the same question set on exposure, toxicity and risk assessment/management; however each subsection focused on a different MNM. 4) Safety and innovation The safety and innovation section of this Delphi round was focused towards industry participants, asking questions on innovation models and information needs along the innovation process so that priorities for supporting adaptive risk governance could be evaluated. These questions in the final section and the results from these were collected on behalf of NanoReg. The structure and number of questions in each of these sections and subsections are presented in Table 1 and the full set of questions is available in Appendix 2.
