Crimes and Other Legislation Amendment (Omnibus No. 2) Act 2023 (98 of 2023)

Schedule 2   Border controlled drugs, plants and precursors

Customs Act 1901

18   Subsection 51A(1)

Repeal the subsection, substitute:

(1) This section applies if a substance or plant is a border controlled drug, a border controlled plant or a border controlled precursor because of a determination made under Subdivision C of Division 301 of the Criminal Code (which deals with emergency Ministerial determinations of serious drugs and precursors).

Note: Border controlled drug , border controlled plant and border controlled precursor have the same meaning as in Part 9.1 of the Criminal Code(see subsection 4(1) of this Act). In that Part, those terms include substances or plants that are, under Subdivision C of Division 301 of the Criminal Code, taken, for the purposes of the Part, to be border controlled drugs, border controlled plants or border controlled precursors only in relation to particular offences against the Part, or particular elements of those offences.
