the suitability of a person to be licensed to handle dangerous substances, including—
the knowledge, experience and training of the person; and
the testing or examination of a person to decide whether the person is, or continues to be, a suitable person to hold a licence; and
the suitability of premises (including vehicles) in relation to a licence; and
the kinds of licences that may be issued and the authority given to a licensee by a particular kind of licence; and
the conditions of a licence; and

authorising a person to handle a prohibited dangerous substance or controlled dangerous substance for research, education or any other purpose.
A regulation may also provide the circumstances in which a licence or other form of authority (however described) to handle a dangerous substance under a corresponding law authorises a person to handle the dangerous substance in the ACT.
