Integrated Nuclear Fuel Cycle Information System (iNFCIS) is a set of databases related to the nuclear fuel cycle maintained by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
 The main objective of iNFCIS is to provide information on all aspects of nuclear fuel cycle to various researchers, analysts, energy planners, academicians, students and the general public.
 Presently iNFCIS includes several modules.
 iNFCIS requires free registration for on-line access.
The Minerals and Energy Advisory Council is an entity which represents the interests of resources and energy companies to the Government of South Australia.
 It was formed in 2015 in a merger of the Resources Industry Development Board and the Resources and Energy Sector Infrastructure Council.
 It is in a partnership with the Olympic Dam Task Force.
 In 2016, the MEAC discussed the future use of small modular nuclear reactors in South Australia and the need to legalise their deployment.
 The MEAC also prepared a report on the findings of the Nuclear Fuel Cycle Royal Commission to present to Minister Tom Koutantonis.
The thorium fuel cycle is a nuclear fuel cycle that uses an isotope of thorium, Th , as the fertile material.
 In the reactor, Th is transmuted into the fissile artificial uranium isotope U which is the nuclear fuel.
 Unlike natural uranium, natural thorium contains only trace amounts of fissile material (such as Th ), which are insufficient to initiate a nuclear chain reaction.
 Additional fissile material or another neutron source is necessary to initiate the fuel cycle.
 In a thorium-fueled reactor, Th absorbs neutrons to produce U .
 This parallels the process in uranium breeder reactors whereby fertile U absorbs neutrons to form fissile Pu .
 Depending on the design of the reactor and fuel cycle, the generated U either fissions in situ or is chemically separated from the used nuclear fuel and formed into new nuclear fuel.
The nuclear fuel cycle, also called nuclear fuel chain, is the progression of nuclear fuel through a series of differing stages.
 It consists of steps in the "front end", which are the preparation of the fuel, steps in the "service period" in which the fuel is used during reactor operation, and steps in the "back end", which are necessary to safely manage, contain, and either reprocess or dispose of spent nuclear fuel.
 If spent fuel is not reprocessed, the fuel cycle is referred to as an "open fuel cycle" (or a "once-through fuel cycle"); if the spent fuel is reprocessed, it is referred to as a "closed fuel cycle".
The Nuclear Fuel Cycle Royal Commission is a Royal Commission into South Australia's future role in the nuclear fuel cycle.
 It commenced on 19 March 2015 and delivered its final report to the Government of South Australia on 6 May 2016.
 The Commissioner was former Governor of South Australia, Kevin Scarce, a retired Royal Australian Navy Rear-Admiral and chancellor of the University of Adelaide.
 The Commission delivered 12 key recommendations, including identifying an economic opportunity in the establishment of a deep geological storage facility and the receipt of spent nuclear fuel from prospective international clients.
 The Commission also recommended repealing prohibitions which prevent the future development of nuclear industry in South Australia and nationally.
Colin Dunsford is a retired Australian accountant and company director.
 He was a partner at Ernst & Young until 2010 and continues there as a member of the firm's advisory board.
 He is a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Australia and holds a Bachelor of Economics.
 In 2013, he became a Member of the Order of Australia "for significant service to the community of South Australia, and to the accounting profession".
 In 2016, he was one of a group of prominent South Australians who signed an open letter encouraging government to continue to explore opportunities in the importation and storage of spent nuclear fuel, following the findings of the 2015-16 Nuclear Fuel Cycle Royal Commission.
The established nuclear industry in South Australia is focused on uranium mining, milling and the export of uranium oxide concentrate for use in the production of nuclear fuel for nuclear power plants.
 The state is home to the world's largest known single deposit of uranium, which is worked by BHP Billiton at the Olympic Dam mine.
 Contaminated legacy sites exist at Maralinga and Emu Field, where nuclear weapons tests were conducted in the 1950s and 1960s and at former uranium mines and milling sites.
 Nuclear waste is stored by CSIRO at Woomera and future waste storage prospects were considered during the deliberations of the Nuclear Fuel Cycle Royal Commission in 2016.
 The Commission has recommended that South Australia considers opportunities in nuclear waste storage (including developing a repository for spent nuclear fuel), the establishment of a nuclear fuel leasing scheme and the repeal of prohibitions which currently prevent future nuclear industrial development nationally.
Stephen Lincoln is a chemistry and physics professor at the University of Adelaide's Environment Institute.
 His work in molecular science has resulted in over 300 publications in scientific journals and he is the author of "Challenged Earth: An Overview of Humanity’s Stewardship of Earth" (2006), a book in which he discusses population, water, food, biotechnology, health, energy, climate change and the ozone layer.
 He has a long-term interest in nuclear power and is a board member and spokesperson for South Australian Nuclear Energy Systems, a private Australian company established in 2014 to explore the feasibility of nuclear industrial development projects in South Australia.
 Lincoln has been a media spokesperson on nuclear issues in the wake of the Fukushima nuclear disaster and in the lead up to South Australia's Nuclear Fuel Cycle Royal Commission in 2015.
 His work has been awarded by the Royal Australian Chemical Institute and UNESCO.
The Nuclear fuel cycle information system (NFCIS) is a database maintained by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to store reliable information on nuclear fuel cycle facilities around the world.
 The NFCIS contains information submitted by IAEA member countries as well as public information.
 As of 2011, information about 695 facilities in 52 countries was available in the NFCIS.
 NFCIS is a part of the Integrated Nuclear Fuel Cycle Information System, which contain information on the other parts of the nuclear fuel cycle.
Rear Admiral Kevin John Scarce {'1': ", '2': ", '3': ", '4': "} (born 4 May 1952) is a retired Royal Australian Navy officer who was the 34th Governor of South Australia, serving from August 2007 to August 2014.
 He was succeeded by Hieu Van Le, who had previously been his lieutenant governor.
