(see s 5)

column 1

item

column 2

description of organism

1

a mutant organism in which the mutational event did not involve the introduction of any foreign nucleic acid (that is, non-homologous DNA, usually from another species)

2

a whole animal, or a human being, modified by the introduction of naked recombinant nucleic acid (such as a DNA vaccine) into its somatic cells, if the introduced nucleic acid is incapable of giving rise to infectious agents

3

naked plasmid DNA that is incapable of giving rise to infectious agents when introduced into a host cell

6

an organism that results from an exchange of DNA if—

(a)     the donor species is also the host species; and

(b)     the vector DNA does not contain any heterologous DNA

7

an organism that results from an exchange of DNA between the donor species and the host species if—

(a)     such exchange can occur by naturally occurring processes; and

(b)     the donor species and the host species are micro-organisms that—

(i)     satisfy the criteria in AS/NZS 2243.3:2010, for classification as Risk Group 1; and

(ii)     are known to exchange nucleic acid by a natural physiological process; and

(c)     the vector used in the exchange does not contain heterologous DNA from any organism other than an organism that is involved in the exchange
