EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

STATUTORY RULES 1994 No. 410

Issued by the authority of the Minister for the Environment, Sport and Territories

Australian Sports Drug Agency Act 1990

Australian Sports Drug Agency Regulations (Amendment)

Section 73 of the Australian Sports Drug Agency Act 1990 (the Act) provides that the GovernorGeneral may make regulations prescribing matters required or permitted by the Act to be prescribed or necessary or convenient to be prescribed for carrying out or giving effect to the Act.

The Australian Sports Drug Agency Regulations (Amendment) amends the Regulations in force under the Australian Sports Drug Agency Act 199 to enable the Agency to carry out its responsibilities more efficiently and effectively.

The details of the amendments are:

Regulation 2 - Regulation 32A (Testing the second sample - what must an accredited laboratory do?)

The Agency requires any second accredited laboratory that tests the remaining part of the A sample to notify it of any possible positive or negative result. A second accredited laboratory cannot notify the competitor of a possible positive result because it does not know the identity of the competitor.

The new sub regulation 32A (3) makes it clear that the second accredited laboratory must notify the Agency of any possible positive A sample result then proceed to test the B sample under regulation 33.

The new sub regulation 32A (4) (a) makes it clear that the second accredited laboratory must notify the Agency of a negative result under sub regulation 31 (1).
