Overview This Act gives effect to Australia's obligations under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and other agreements, and establishes a system of control over nuclear material and associated items (associated material, associated equipment and associated technology). The system of control includes establishing requirements for permits for possession and transport of nuclear material and associated items, and the independent regulator - ASNO (Australian Safeguards and Non-proliferation Office).
