The Export Control (Amendment) Regulations 2026

Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

As published

3 Amendments to Schedule 2 (Military Goods, Software and Technology)

(1) Schedule 2 (Military Goods, Software and Technology) is amended as follows. (2) For the definition of “riot control agents”, including the Technical Note, substitute— “riot control agents” (“RCAs”) means substances which, under the expected conditions of use for riot control purposes, produce rapidly in humans sensory irritation or disabling physical effects which disappear within a short time following termination of exposure; Technical Note: Tear gases are a subset of “RCAs”. Note: “RCAs” include: 1. a-Bromobenzeneacetonitrile, (Bromobenzyl cyanide) (CA) (CAS 5798-79-8); 2. [(2-chlorophenyl) methylene] propanedinitrile, (o-Chlorobenzylidenemalononitrile) (CS) (CAS 2698-41-1); 3. 2-Chloro-1-phenylethanone, Phenylacyl chloride (ω-chloroacetophenone) (CN) (C reinforced AS 532-27-4); 4. Dibenz-(b,f)-1,4-oxazepine, (CR) (CAS 257-07-8); 5. 10-Chloro-5,10-dihydrophenarsazine, (Phenarsazine chloride), (Adamsite), (DM) (CAS 578-94-9); 6. N-Nonanoylmorpholine, (MPA) (CAS 5299-64-9). . (3) For entry ML2.b.3., substitute— 3 “Pyrotechnics” device or cartridge projectors. . (4) In entry ML7— (a) for ““riot control agents””, in both places those words occur, substitute ““Riot Control Agents” (“RCAs”)”; (b) in entry ML7.b., for “warfare” substitute “Warfare”; (c) for entry ML7.d., not including the notes, substitute— “RCAs”, active constituent chemicals and combinations thereof; . (5) In entry ML8— (a) in entry ML8.b.4., for “steady-state” substitute “steady state”; (b) in entry ML8.f.14., for “(CAS 7406-61-9)” substitute “(CAS 7046-61-9)”. (6) In entry ML10.h.— (a) for entry ML10.h.1., substitute— 1. Cargo or personnel parachutes; N.B.: For other military parachutes, see the relevant ML entry. ; (b) after entry ML10.h.3., insert— Note: ML10.h.3. includes suits, helmets, breathing systems and navigation equipment. . (7) After entry ML19.f., and before the Technical Note, insert— Note 1: | DEW systems specified in ML19. include systems whose capability is derived from the controlled application of: a. “Lasers” of sufficient power to effect destruction similar to the manner of conventional ammunition; b. Particle accelerators which project a charged or neutral particle beam with destructive power; c. High pulsed power or high average power radio frequency beam transmitters, which produce fields sufficiently intense to disable electronic circuitry at a distant target. Note 2: | ML19. includes the following when specially designed for DEW systems: a. Prime power generation, energy storage, switching, power conditioning or fuel-handling equipment; b. Target acquisition or tracking systems; c. Systems capable of assessing target damage, destruction or mission abort; d. Beam-handling, propagation or pointing equipment; e. Equipment with rapid beam slew capability for rapid multiple target operations; f. Adaptive optics and phase conjugators; g. Current injectors for negative hydrogen ion beams; h. “Space-qualified” accelerator components; i. Negative ion beam funnelling equipment; j. Equipment for controlling and slewing a high energy ion beam; k. “Space-qualified” foils for neutralising negative hydrogen isotope beams. . (8) In entry ML21.b.4.— (a) for “(C³I)” substitute “(C3I)”; (b) for “(C⁴I)” substitute “(C4I)”.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.

Think it through

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
