Ban on uranium sales to India stands.
The Federal Government is standing by its policy against selling uranium to India.
The Indian Government has asked the Federal Government to allow it to import Australian uranium even though it has not signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
The United States has done a nuclear co-operation deal with India.
But the Nationals leader, Mark Vaile, says there is no change in Australia's policy.
"Our policy remains the same as it has been in the way we addressed this issue with China," he said.
"We maintained we could not do business with China until we had the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty signed and in place and that is the policy we would apply today to India."
