conventionally disposed of must be delivered to the National Collection Centre at PSI, where it is conditioned and stored for later disposal. At present no large amount of such radioactive waste is in storage at PSI nor is expected to arise in the future. Radioactive Waste within the Defence Programme (Paragraph 3) This Convention shall not apply to the safety of management of spent fuel or radioactive waste within military or defence programmes, unless declared as spent fuel or radioactive waste for the purposes of this Convention by the Contracting Party. However, this Convention shall apply to the safety of management of spent fuel and radioactive waste from military or defence programmes if and when such materials are transferred permanently to and managed within exclusively civilian programmes. The legislation applicable to radioactive waste management contains no exceptions for waste material originating from military applications. Such radioactive waste must be delivered to the National Collection Centre at PSI. Only a small amount of radioactive waste has come from military applications. It has been conditioned and stored at PSI together with similar material from other sources and is considered to be radioactive waste for the purposes of the Convention.
