Recognition of foreign reference standards of measurement
21 Recognition of foreign reference standards of measurement
The Chief Metrologist may issue a written notice recognising a reference standard of measurement that is verified (however described) in a foreign country as a reference standard of measurement if:
the verified values of the standard of measurement are established by means of, by reference to, by comparison with or by derivation from the primary standards of measurement of the foreign country; and
appropriate comparability is established between:
the relevant primary standards of measurement of the foreign country; and
one or more Australian primary standards of measurement.
A recognised reference standard of measurement is taken to be a verified reference standard of measurement.
A written notice issued under subregulation (1) in relation to a reference standard of measurement is taken to be a certificate issued under regulation 19 for the reference standard of measurement.
