Explanatory Note.

(This Note is not part of the requiullons, but is intended to indicate their general purport).

The importation of radioactive materials and irradiating apparatus of all types was hitherto controlled by the Importation (Prohibition) (Specified Articles) Regulations, 1952 (G.N. A. 170752), which have now been revoked by the recently enacted Importation (Prohibition) (Strategic Commodities) Regulations, 1959.

2. As it is still considered desirable to retain control over the importation of the above items, the Importation (Prohibition) (Radiation) Regulations, 1939. have been drafted to achieve the said purpose.
