(1) Subject to subregulation (3)
, these regulations apply only to or in relation to radioactive substances—
(a) that are—
(i) a radioactive ore; or
(ii) a radioactive substance with a specific activity of more than 35 kilobecquerels per kilogram; and
(b) that contain 1 or more radionuclides so that—
is more than or equal to one.
(2) In subregulation (1)
—
"A1" means the total activity of group 1 radionuclides (in kilobecquerels);
"A2" means the total activity of group 2 radionuclides (in kilobecquerels);
"A3" means the total activity of group 3 radionuclides (in kilobecquerels);
"A4" means the total activity of group 4 radionuclides (in kilobecquerels).
(3) These regulations do not apply to or in relation to tritium contained in an instrument, device, article or thing if—
(a) less than 20 gigabecquerels of tritium is contained in the instrument, device, article or thing; and
(b) the tritium is wholly confined to a gaseous tritium light source; and
(c) the gaseous tritium light source is accessible only with the use of a tool designed for the specific task of gaining access to the gaseous tritium light source in the instrument, article, device or thing; and
(d) the activity in the form of tritiated water is less than 50 megabecquerels; and
(e) the instrument, article, device or thing is not a consumer product.
