A major concern with nuclear weapons is who actually has the authority to launch them and the controls that are in place to prevent an accidental launch.  Does anyone know what protocol the Iranians would use?
There is almost no strategic value for a country possessing a limited nuclear arsenal compared to their enemy unless the country uses their arsenal first, so not a very sophisticated protocol needed, just the belief of an imminent threat.

The whole purpose of the proposed missile defense shield intended to be deployed in eastern Europe is to reduce the strategic value of nuclear weapons (specifically Iran's or N. Korea's) as a threat to western nations from almost nothing to absolutely nothing.

Economics and diplomatic relations will be valued over any environmental concerns. The license review process is nothing less than a whitewash to allow PTT to continue operating.

No government, especially a resource focused one like Australia, is going to turn even PTT away, regardless of how lacking their standards are found to be.
