<p>Any solution for the disposition of plutonium will need to be fully compliant with
the UK’s obligations under such treaties as the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of
Nuclear Weapons, the Convention on the Physical Protection of Nuclear Material and
the Euratom Treaty (including any Euratom directives issued thereunder, for example
the COUNCIL DIRECTIVE 2013/59/EURATOM of 5 December 2013, which requires safety standards
for the protection of the health of workers and the general public against the dangers
arising from ionizing radiation). The particular treaty obligations that may be triggered
will depend on the nature of the chosen disposition solution.</p><br />
