Consultation on labelling reforms begins
First published 8 July 2011, updated 1 August 2011
As part of the Australian Government’s Better Regulation Partnership reforms, the APVMA is finalising the implementation of the Government’s new approach to labelling requirements for agricultural and veterinary chemicals.
A series of documents is being produced by the APVMA to reflect the recent legislative changes resulting from the reform process. These documents are designed to improve the efficiency of label registration procedures and will be available for comment over the coming months.
Coming soon
- Legislative instrument for changes in certain relevant particulars
- Labelling Best Practice Guides (agricultural and veterinary chemicals)
Comments closed
- Requirements for submitting relevant label particulars, from 8 July to 5 August 2011
- APVMA Labelling Standard, from 22 July to 19 August 2011
- New permit to authorise certain label changes from 1 August 2011 to 2 September 2011
How to provide feedback
Registrants, industry associations and other key stakeholders are encouraged to participate in these consultations over the coming months.
The release of each document for consultation will be published on our public consultation page and communicated in our fortnightly email newsletter, Regulatory Update.
