Several countries have declared themselves nuclear-free, but one notable example is New Zealand. In 1984, New Zealand enacted legislation that prohibited nuclear weapons and nuclear-powered vessels from its territory, effectively declaring itself a nuclear-free zone. This decision has been a point of pride for the nation and has influenced its foreign policy and international relations.

What is a free zone?

See the following taken from wikipedia 'Nuclear free Zone' The meaning is what the local group decides, but it would certainly encompass being free of nuclear weapons. If a local authority which included a military nuclear weapons facility decided to ban it, it would introduce some farcical scenes, but this would probably not happen. Presumably the local group would not go so far as to ban medical use of radioisotopes. ''A nuclear-free zone is an area where nuclear weapons (see Nuclear-Weapon-Free Zone) and/or nuclear power is banned. The specific ramifications of these depend on the locale in question. Many local authorities worldwide have declared themselves "nuclear-free". However, this label is largely symbolic, since most local authorities would be powerless to stop the construction of a nuclear plant if one was planned for the area. In the case of New Zealand its status as a nuclear-free zone is not symbolic but enshrined in the nation's legislation. New Zealand was the first Western-allied nation to legislate towards a nuclear free zone, effectively renouncing the nuclear deterrent.''
