Industrial Chemicals Act 2019

This section applies if:

an industrial chemical was listed on the Inventory under section 82 or 83 in relation to an assessment certificate; and

another assessment certificate is in force for the industrial chemical; and

either:

5 years have passed since the other assessment certificate was issued; or

a holder of the other assessment certificate has applied under this subparagraph to the Executive Director for a variation to the listing.

For general requirements relating to applications: see section 167.

The Executive Director may vary a term of the Inventory listing for the industrial chemical to incorporate the terms of the other assessment certificate.

Before varying a term of the Inventory listing for the industrial chemical, the Executive Director must give written notice of the proposed variation to:

each holder of the other assessment certificate; and

any other person prescribed by the rules for the purposes of this paragraph.

A notice under subsection (3) must contain the following:

the terms of the listing as varied;

the reason why the listing is to be varied;

the day the listing is proposed to be varied.

If the Executive Director varies a term of the Inventory listing for an industrial chemical under subsection (2), the Executive Director must:

publish on the AICIS website a notice containing the following:

the terms of the listing as varied;

the reason why the listing was varied; and

the day the listing was varied; and

do so within 20 working days after the day the listing is varied.

To avoid doubt, a single notice under this section may cover more than one term of an Inventory listing.
