Your circuit basically is a RF detector Either re-design it so it has a capacitor to ground from pin 12. or just add 1 nF from pin 12 to ground, might just be enough.
1 nF = 1/10 of the 10 nF will short out _some_ RF.
Tin is not ferromagnetic and makes a crappy magnetic field shield, unlike steel? Replace with steel box. Your junction impedances at IC inputs are really good receptors of magnetic field induced voltages.
There is no need for a switch de-bounce circuit as all that bounce will do is lengthen the on-time by a few tens of milliseconds.
Follow the suggestions of a capacitor from pin 12 to ground as this will get rid of most RF noise. To achieve this: Delete the 0.01uF capacitor from its current location and connect it between pin 12 and ground instead. Reduce the 1Meg resistor to about 100 ohms. This is just to limit the peak current in the switch so that the contacts do not burn. Add a low value capacitor in parallel with the 100uF power supply decoupling to improve decoupling at RF. Maybe add a zener diode or TVS rated at about 24V across the relay coil to reduce the back EMF (connected so it does not normally conduct). Consider a very small capacitor from pins 8&9 to ground if there are still problems. Make sure the case is connected to ground. John
I think I'd just go for a simple make break switch in the power line to the relay coil, or even just to drive the transistor, unless there is a real need for a monostable.

The from address exists but is mostly dumped,
I think that's a momentary, used as a trigger for the NORs which are a mono stable on the order of 3 minutes? The timing resistor is labeled 1M8 for 10 Meg?
That does not help the magnetic pickup around any external component from p in 12- thru pin 12 and internal cmos gate to Vdd || Gnd (parellel) thru Gnd || Vdd back to external component. All the induced voltage is across the h igh impedance internal CMOS gate.
That resistor is to discharge the ac-coupled triggering cap off the switch.

I disagree. Where are voltage spikes coming from unless he has really small gauge wire connected to his lamps that cause big line drops. Now magnetic field surges due to inrush on turn-on and inductive interruption at turn-of f make much more sense. He possibly could improve situation, fairly immense ly, by converting to LED lamps, but that doesn't directly address the probl em.

Fluorescent lamps can make a lot of RF, especially when they are starting. He said the circuit malfunctions when he turns other lighting on or off. I'd certainly suggest a ceramic caps in parallel with the 100 uF power deco upling cap.
Everyone focuses on the pin 12 input to the CMOS gate, but how do the noise spikes get past the switch? If they capacitively couple through the switc h even a small cap from pin 12 to ground would fix that, say 330 pf.

The fluorescents with electronic ballasts switch at something like 36KHz, b ut the current is pretty well smoothed with a series inductor. It does stri ke an HV arc at turn on but not a surge current. Any kind of grounded metal lic box enclosing the circuit shunts those kinds of frequencies due to elec tric field right to ground. You will have a real tough time measuring elect ric field induced currents in his circuits.
