provision of this Part, a person may destroy a pre 2010 record during the
retention period if authorised in writing to do so by the Secretary.

Secretary must not authorise the destruction of a pre 2010 record unless
satisfied that no person would be adversely affected by the destruction of the
record.

using those gametes.
