(iii) the crop, animal or situation for which the product is to be used; (iv) if the product is to be used on a crop—whether the crop is grown in a field, undercover, or both; (v) the disease, pest or other purpose for which the product is intended (both common and scientific names); (vi) information about when, and how much of, the product is administered (including, where applicable, spray rate or dosage rate, frequency, duration and volume); (vii) the wetters or other proposed additives or mixtures to be added to the product, and their volume; (viii) the end users of the product, identified as ‘persons generally’ or specified persons or classes of persons; (ix) the timing for the product’s application (for example, the phase of growth of the crop at which the product is applied); (x) the maximum number of applications of the product per crop or animal and season or year; (xi) the minimum interval between applications of the product to the crop or animal; (xii) the method of application of the product (including, for veterinary chemical products, the route of administration); (xiii) an estimate of the extent to which the product will be used (for example, the number of hectares or tonnage of produce or the number of animals); (xiv) the equipment used to apply the product; (xv) the time between the last application of the product and the harvest of the relevant crop or grazing and cutting for livestock, or the slaughter or milking of the relevant animal; (xvi) any other information regarding special precautions or critical use for the product; (d) identification of the end users of the product, either by reference to ‘persons generally’ or a specified persons or classes of persons; (e) details of the persons involved in the proposed research and, if the proposed research will involve animals, whether those persons hold licences (or similar) to undertake research that involves animals; (f) if the proposed research will involve animals: (i) the States or Territories, and licence numbers, of the relevant animal investigators; and (ii) the names of the animal ethics committees consulted, or to be consulted, by the applicant in relation to the research; and (iii) if approval by such a committee has been obtained – the relevant application name and identification number; and (iii) if approval by such a committee has been obtained – the relevant application number; (g) whether the proposed research will produce food, and if so, whether the produce will be available for consumption by humans or animals; (h) if the proposed research will produce food that will be available for consumption by humans or animals, a statement that: (i) the maximum residue limit will not be exceeded when the produce is used as proposed; or (ii) that a temporary maximum residue limit is proposed for the use; or (iii) that the proposed research will not result in any detectable or quantifiable residues; (i) whether the produce of the proposed research will be exported; (j) if the chemical product is a registered chemical product – the name of the product and its distinguishing number; (k) if the chemical product is not a registered chemical product and is imported into Australia – details of the importation and evidence of any consent provided by the APVMA for the purposes of subsection 69B(1B) of the Agricultural and Veterinary Chemicals (Administration) Act 1992; (l) if the product is not a registered chemical product – the following information about each manufacturer of the product: (i) the name of the manufacturer (if the manufacturer is a company, the company’s name); (ii) if the manufacturer has an ACN – the ACN; (iii) if the manufacturer is an overseas company and has a number equivalent to an ACN – that number; (iv) the street address of each site at which steps in the manufacturing process are undertaken by the manufacturer; (v) the steps in the manufacturing process which take place at that site; (m) if the product is not a registered chemical product – the name and address of the supplier of the chemical product; (n) for a veterinary chemical product manufactured pursuant to a licence issued under the Code—the number given to that licence by the APVMA; (o) for an unregistered chemical product: (i) if an application has been made for the registration of the product—a statement as to why the applicant needs a permit before the application is determined; and (ii) if no application has been made for the registration of the product—a statement as to why no application has been made; (p) for an unregistered product—the following information about the containers of the product: (i) the proposed size of the containers;
