33 Subsidiary hazard
33 Subsidiary hazard
The subsidiary hazard, if any, of particular dangerous goods for the purposes of this Regulation is—
(a) if a determination under section 22(1)(c) that the goods have a particular subsidiary hazard is in effect—the subsidiary hazard specified in the determination, or
(b) otherwise—the subsidiary hazard determined for the goods in accordance with the ADG Code.
Note—
Dangerous goods that are able to be assigned to more than 1 UN Class or Division are assigned a subsidiary hazard. The subsidiary hazard is the other UN Class or Classes, or Division or Divisions, to which the goods also belong. Under the ADG Code, if particular dangerous goods are listed in the Dangerous Goods List, their subsidiary hazard is that listed in column 4 of that list opposite the name and description of the goods, unless Chapter 3.3 of the ADG Code provides for the goods to be assigned a different subsidiary hazard.
