| dc.description.abstract | Number of manufacturing industries and medical institutions in Sri Lanka are using variety of CBRNE agents that could cause severe damage if those agents are released to the environment due to behavioural patterns such as negligence, unawareness and lack of supervision. Inadequate care on CBRNE agents will cost lives and if the same agents are fallen in to wrong hands those could be used as Weapons of Mass Destruction. On the other hand, whether the government has adequately laid down the rules and regulations to protect the national security from the emerging threat is another area to be investigated. Therefore, a research gap has been identified in the area of CBRNE agents and their industrial usage as to whether the parties involved in CBRNE related production are caring about the national security aspect along with the revenue aspect to conduct a research. | en_US |
