What this instrument does (simple):
How it works, mechanically:
It prescribes fixed dollar amounts in tables for different kinds of facility licences (see regulation 7 for nuclear installations, regulation 8 for prescribed radiation facilities, regulation 9 for prescribed legacy sites). Each table item describes the activity the licence authorises and the annual amount payable.
For source licences (dealing with controlled apparatus or controlled materials), the charge is a simple formula: $601 multiplied by the number of controlled apparatus and controlled materials the licence covers (regulation 12).
For a small set of named holders, the regulations replace the usual per-licence or per-item charges with a single total annual charge for all licences held in that name (regulation 10 for facility licences; regulation 13 for source licences). Those named entities include agencies and research bodies such as the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO), Australian National University (ANU), Department of Defence and others.

This instrument is the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety (Licence Charges) Regulations 2018.
This instrument is made under the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety (Licence Charges) Act 1998.
(1) In this instrument:
Act means the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety (Licence Charges) Act 1998.
ARPANS Act means the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Act 1998.
ARPANS Regulations means the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Regulations 2018.
(2) An expression used in this instrument that is defined in the ARPANS Act or the ARPANS Regulations has the same meaning in this instrument as it has in that Act or those regulations.
For the purposes of subsection 4(2) of the Act, this Part prescribes the amount of the charge for a financial year for a facility licence.
Note 1: Division 5 prescribes the total charge for a financial year for all facility licences held in certain names, and has effect despite Divisions 2, 3 and 4.
Note 2: Division 7 of Part 5 of the ARPANS Regulations provides for the time for payment of the annual charge, pro‑rating and refunds.
The amount of the charge for a financial year for a facility licence authorising an act relating to a controlled facility described in an item of the following table is the amount set out in the item.

(2) This Division has effect despite Divisions 2, 3 and 4.
For the purposes of subsection 5(2) of the Act, this Part prescribes the amount of the charge for a financial year for a source licence authorising the holder of the licence to deal with one or more controlled apparatus or controlled materials.
Note 1: Section 13 prescribes the total charge for a financial year for all source licences held in certain names, and has effect despite section 12.
Note 2: Division 7 of Part 5 of the ARPANS Regulations makes provision in relation to the time for payment of the annual charge, pro‑rating and refunds.
The charge for a financial year for a source licence is the amount worked out by multiplying $601 by the total number of controlled apparatus and controlled materials that the licence authorises the holder of the licence to deal with.

For the purposes of subsection 4(2) of the Act, this Part prescribes the amount of the charge for a financial year for a facility licence.
Note 1: Division 5 prescribes the total charge for a financial year for all facility licences held in certain names, and has effect despite Divisions 2, 3 and 4.
Where an application would authorise multiple different acts, the fee may be the sum of the fees for separate licences (see the rule for multi‑act licences in regulation 8(4)).
The instrument refers to the ARPANS Regulations for activity thresholds and for administrative matters such as timing for payment, pro‑rating and refunds (see the cross‑references in regulations 6, 7 and 8 and the notes pointing to Part 5, Division 7 of the ARPANS Regulations and to section 4 for activity value steps).
Who this affects:
Anyone who holds or wants to hold a facility licence for a nuclear installation, a prescribed radiation facility, or a prescribed legacy site (regulated persons and organisations that operate reactors, irradiators, radioisotope production facilities, waste storage/disposal facilities, legacy sites, etc.) — see regulations 7–9.
Anyone who holds or wants to hold a source licence covering controlled apparatus or controlled materials (regulation 12).
The named Commonwealth bodies listed in regulation 10 and regulation 13, which are charged a single annual amount covering all of their licences.
Why it matters in practice:
It determines the direct annual cost of being licensed under the national radiation safety regime. Costs vary widely by activity type and scale — e.g. operating a higher‑power research reactor attracts a much higher annual fee than possession of a small legacy site (see the specific table entries in regulations 7–9).
The structure of fees affects economic choices by licensees: how they budget for compliance, how they organise activities across licences or legal entities, and whether a proposed activity is financially viable once the licence cost is included.
Official purpose-claims and testing them against trade-offs:
The regulation itself does not state the policy aim other than to prescribe amounts under the Licence Charges Act. The practical claim implicit in such schedules is cost recovery for the regulator’s licensing function. That claim implies a trade‑off: fees recoup regulatory costs but raise operating costs for licensees.
Concrete trade-offs and implementation effects to note (mechanisms, not judgments):
Who pays, who decides, what behaviour changes (plain):
Practical implementation risks and compliance points to check:
