AgVetLink: Number 56, June 2006

From the Director

The Memorandum of Understanding with Australia, which was introduced in the last issue of AgVetLink, has been signed and development of the three-year workplan is underway (page 2).

A public discussion document on proposed amendments to the ACVM Regulations 2001 has been released and we invite your comments on any aspect of the proposals (page 2). To help you with the process, we have included an article about points to consider when making submissions (page 5).

Queries about information waivers have been frequent this month. See page 3 for an overview.

While we applaud waste management schemes in principle, plans to reuse plastic containers for ACVM products present significant risks and could result in unregistered products. The article on page 3 explains the situation.

Debbie Morris, Director, Approvals and ACVM Group
