The Nuclear Safeguards (EU Exit) Regulations 2019and the Nuclear Safeguards (Fissionable Material and Relevant International Agreements) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019were made on 7 February 2019 and will come into force on Exit Day

The Regulations set out the legal framework for the new domestic civil nuclear safeguards regime after the UK leaves the Euratom Treaty on exit day. They will replace the current legal framework on nuclear safeguards provided under the Treaty. The Regulations ensure that the UK will continue to comply with nuclear safeguard obligations contained in various international agreements after Brexit.
