  Beta-beams is a novel concept for the production of neutrino beams exploiting
boosted radioactive ions which decay through beta-decay. Here we describe a
project, currently under investigation, where such beams are used to address
the issue of CP violation in the lepton sector. We also mention the interest of
having low-energy beta-beams. The connection to projects for the production of
very intense exotic ion beams, like EURISOL, is emphasized.
