The government’s deal last month on nuclear co-operation with India, who are not a signatory to Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, suggests the Abbott Government may be abandoning Australia’s uranium safeguard conditions.

The terms of the agreement have been set by India and the country’s government has refused to provide reports on Australian uranium exports, which could be a contravention of Australia’s usual safeguard standards.
