Is it time for the Australian Government to revisit this, seeing as we will need our own supply of enriched Uranium for our Navy?
It would make sense to me, that we could produce the fuel required to run our own our nuclear submarines whist not providing enrichment for Nuclear weapons as such.
And at the same time provide some enrichment services for commercial nuclear power to allied countries in our own region?

Chapter 12 Value adding — fuel cycle services industries, nuclear power, skills and training in Australia
For Australia—soon to displace Canada as the premier uranium exporter—to ignore the study of the uranium fuel cycle and its value-added technologies and industries indicates a pattern of intellectual and economic neglect possibly unparalleled in higher education policy and academic history.
… Australia should seize the opportunity to maximise the financial return by not only selling more uranium but also adding value to the product by getting involved in other steps in the manufacture of nuclear fuel. Above all, we should sell uranium enriched to reactor fuel quality rather than simply selling uranium as yellowcake.
In its own interests and as a contribution to the containment of greenhouse gas emissions globally, there is a strategic, economic and ethical case for Australia now, to include nuclear electricity generation in its energy infrastructure.
