Authorisation of prescribed classes of persons
54 Authorisation of prescribed classes of persons
A regulation may prescribe a class of persons to be authorised to carry out a regulated activity with a regulated substance.
Without limiting subsection (1), the regulated activity with the regulated substance for the class of persons may be prescribed by reference to—
the circumstances in which the regulated activity may be carried out by the class of persons; or
the purposes for which the regulated activity may be carried out by the class of persons; or
the direction or supervision under which the regulated activity may be carried out by the class of persons; or
an extended practice authority that applies to the class of persons.
An approved person is a member of a class of persons prescribed under subsection (1) for a regulated activity with a regulated substance for the class of persons.
Subject to section 30(2), the approved person is authorised to carry out the regulated activity with the regulated substance.
Note—
See, however, section 31 for when the approved person carries out the regulated activity with the regulated substance in the authorised way.
An authorisation under subsection (4) is an approved person’s authorisation.
This section is subject to sections 55 and 56.
