<p>Withdrawal from the Euratom Treaty will not diminish the UK's nuclear ambitions
for its new build nuclear programme, and the Government remains committed to delivering
a world leading nuclear programme in close collaboration with international counterparts,
including the USA.</p><p>Non EU countries that have a relationship with Euratom do
so mainly through international nuclear cooperation agreements (NCA) with the Euratom
Community. These provide frameworks for cooperation in the civil nuclear sector, but
are not an absolute requirement for trade in civil nuclear material or goods with
every country, and in many cases trade continues without being covered by an NCA.</p><p>We
will maintain continuity of cooperation and develop new arrangements as necessary.</p>
