Transport Canada and CNSC MoU

The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission and Transport Canada have recently renewed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). This newly signed MoU updates the previous arrangements in place and reflects current legislation, policies, programs, methods and processes governing the safe transport of radioactive material in Canada.

The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission and Transport Canada each have statutory obligations under the Nuclear Safety and Control Act and the Transportation of Dangerous Goods Act, respectively, for regulating the transport of radioactive material in Canada.
