Division 1   Industrial chemicals included in old Inventory

40   Industrial chemicals included in confidential section of old Inventory

(1) This item applies if, immediately before 1 July 2020, an industrial chemical was included in the confidential section of the old Inventory.

(2) For the purposes of the new law, subject to this Part and any modifications prescribed by the transitional rules:

(a) the industrial chemical is taken, on and after 1 July 2020, to have been listed on the Inventory under the new law; and

(b) the approved particulars under subsections 12(4) and (4A) of the old law are taken to be the terms of the Inventory listing for the industrial chemical under the new law; and

(c) Subdivisions A and B of Division 4 of Part 6 of the new law apply as if an application for the proper name for the industrial chemical to be treated as confidential business information had been approved under subsection 108(1) of the new law; and

(d) a reference in the new law to a requirement to publish an AACN in lieu of the proper name (including the CAS name, CAS number or molecular formula) for the industrial chemical were instead taken to be a requirement to publish "confidential" in lieu of each term of the Inventory listing for the industrial chemical.

(3) To avoid doubt, nothing in this item is taken to change the time at which the industrial chemical was listed on the Inventory.
