This subsidiary hazard is any other UN class or division to which the goods also belong. Under the ADG code, if dangerous goods are mentioned in the dangerous goods list, their subsidiary hazard is mentioned in the list, col 4 opposite the name and description of those goods, unless the code, ch 3.3 provides for those goods to be assigned a different subsidiary hazard.
