Defence Export Controls

Published in the Research School of Physics Event Horizon
Vol43 Issue15 1–5 May 2017

Defence export controls may potentially impact you if your research involves collaboration outside Australia. Since the Defence Trade Controls Act(DTCA) came into force on 2 April 2016, researchers may need a permit to export or transfer controlled goods, software and technology or ‘know how’ outside Australia’s borders.

The upcoming DTCA seminar will provide an overview of export controls and the penalties of non-compliance. Practical examples of how research activities can lead to issues that require consideration against the Defence Strategic Goods List will be discussed, with time allocated for Q&A and informal discussion.
