Transport of Radioactive Material
Regulation 3 states that the transport of radioactive materials into
or within NZ must comply with the
Regulations for the Safe
Transport of Radioactive Material published by the
International Atomic Energy Agency.

This publication entitled "Road Transport of Radioactive Material : Requirements and Guidance Notes for Drivers and Handlers" has been endorsed by New Zealand Police and Land Transport New Zealand, and can be downloaded here (PDF 1.12 MB).
