50 Simplified outline of this Part
A person authorised by an Australian naval nuclear power safety licence to conduct a regulated activity must comply with the conditions of the licence that apply to the person (see sections 23 and 25 of the Act for the offences and civil penalty provisions relating to breach of conditions).
Under section 32 of the Act, a licence is subject to all of the following conditions:
(a) the condition set out in subsection 32(2) of the Act;
(b) the conditions prescribed by the regulations;
(c) conditions specified by the Regulator in the licence at the time of issuing the licence;
(d) any conditions specified by the Regulator under subsection 34(2) of the Act after the licence is issued.
This Part prescribes conditions for a licence authorising a facility activity or material activity. The conditions apply to the licence holder and may also apply to other persons authorised under the licence. The conditions may apply to:
(a) all licences authorising a facility activity or material activity (these are set out in Division 2); or
(b) only licences authorising facility activities or a particular kind of facility activity (these are set out in Division 3); or
(c) only licences authorising material activities or a particular kind of material activity (these are set out in Division 4); or
(d) only licences that are transitional licences (these are mainly set out in Division 5).
A licence authorising a facility activity or material activity is also subject to the conditions in section 105 (in Part 5) in relation to nuclear safety incidents that the licence holder is required to report under section 21 of the Act.
