Section 77: Regulation of equipment, software and information
218.This section fills gaps in the regulation making powers of section 77 of the ATCS Act. To the extent not already covered by section 77 of ACTS, the amendments will permit the regulation of persons holding, transmitting or transporting the following items outside nuclear premises, namely (a) uranium enrichment equipment and software, and (b) sensitive nuclear information. The regulation making power will apply regardless of whether uranium enrichment itself is carried out inside or outside the UK.
219.Additional regulations will be made in these areas as soon as the enabling power has been modified.
