Australia’s DEC commences 2018 outreach programmes

Australia’s Defense Export Controls (‘DEC’) has published its schedule of outreach programmes for 2018. Events will be held in Perth, Melbourne, Adelaide and Sydney.

The outreach programme is aimed at small to medium enterprises, and focuses on ‘the requirements exporters must meet when exporting controlled goods and technologies.’ This includes military or commercial items with potential military end use, or those that could be used in developing chemical, biological or nuclear weapons.

The scope of the programme covers:

  • export control regulations,
  • export controls specific to defense industry or academic and research organizations, and
  • the whole-of-government approach to Australia’s export landscape.
