Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This regulation cancels (repeals) the old Environment Protection (Nuclear Codes) Regulations from 1981.

What it does:

Removes the entire 1981 regulations from Australian law
These regulations originally set safety codes and standards for nuclear activities under the Environment Protection (Nuclear Codes) Act 1978

Why it matters: This is a 'bookkeeping' measure to clean up outdated laws. By 2000, these 1981 nuclear codes were obsolete or had been replaced by newer regulatory frameworks. This instrument formally removes them from the statute book rather than leaving old, unused rules in place.

Who it affects: Primarily affects government agencies responsible for nuclear safety, ensuring they reference current standards rather than the outdated 1981 rules.
