Border controlled precursors

In force

(1)

Each item of the following table lists:

(a)

for the purposes of paragraph 301.6(1)(a) of the Code, a substance that is a border controlled precursor; and

(b)

for the purposes of paragraph (a) of item 1 of the table in section 301.10 of the Code, the quantity (if any) that is the commercial quantity of the border controlled precursor; and

Note:

A salt or ester of a substance listed in the table and an immediate precursor of a substance listed in the table are also border controlled precursors: see paragraphs 301.6(1)(b) and (c) of the Code.
