The UK has an internationally integrated civil nuclear industry operating across the nuclear lifecycle, providing facilities and services for enrichment, chemical conversion, fuel production, generation, decommissioning, waste management and research. In 2021, the Nuclear Cooperation Agreements signed by the UK with Australia, Canada, the US and Euratom came into force. In 2019, the UK reviewed its interpretation of the NSG guidelines and strengthened its controls on re-export of UK items already abroad through the ongoing exchange of government-to-government assurances.
The United Kingdom cooperates with other NPT States parties to support the exchange of civilian nuclear items (for power and non-power related applications) in line with NPT obligations and the NSG framework. The UK supports exchange through the IAEA’s Regular Budget and Technical Cooperation (TC) Fund and promotion of peaceful uses of nuclear technology. The UK has consistently reaffirmed the right of States parties to participate in the peaceful uses of nuclear energy in accordance with Article IV of the Treaty. The UK continues to explore Nuclear Cooperation Agreements with other partners where it would be mutually beneficial, and supports the exchange of civil nuclear items through the IAEA's Technical Cooperation Programme and contributions to the Peaceful Uses Initiative.
