I'm not sure I follow your line of argument. It is clear there will be a different requirement in terms of the United Kingdom and the United States. The compliance burden faced by industry, universities and our research sector will be significantly lower, while ensuring that controls adequately address our national security requirements. The reforms aren't intended to prevent foreign nationals from working with Australia on DSGL goods or technologies, nor are they intended to prevent foreign students or academics from engaging with Australian academic institutions. There will be less of a requirement for applications in relation to both of those countries and there will be a framework that applies to the rest of the world, just as there is a framework today.
