### sec.92 Approval of ways of giving information to administering authority
A person may apply to the administering executive for approval of a particular way of giving prescribed information to the administering authority under division 3 .
The person must, within the period required by the administering executive—
give the administering executive the information the executive reasonably requires to decide the application; and
pay the reasonable fee required by the executive for assessing the application.
If the person does not comply with subsection (2) , the application lapses.
The administering executive may approve the way of giving prescribed information if the executive is satisfied—
it is a reliable, effective, timely and efficient way for the information to be given to the administering authority; and
the information will be secure while it is being given; and
the information will be given in a form that enables the authority to access, record and otherwise deal with the information; and
it includes a system for assigning an appropriate unique identifier (consisting of numbers, letters or both) to each transportation of trackable waste for which information is given; and
it would otherwise be an appropriate way for the information to be given.
The administering executive may approve a system under which a person transmits information from the person’s database directly to the administering authority in a particular electronic form.
An approval under subsection (4) may be given on reasonable conditions.
After the administering executive decides the application, the administering executive must give the person a written notice stating—
whether the application is approved or refused; and
if the application is approved—
any conditions of the approval; and
the prescribed period for giving the information; and
if the application is refused—the reasons for the decision; and
the review or appeal details for the decision.
If the administering executive has not decided the application by the due day, the application is taken to have been refused.
To remove doubt, it is declared that the administering executive may approve, under this section, a way of giving information, even though a person has not applied for the approval.
In this section—
due day , for deciding an application, means—
60 days after the application is made, not including a day the administering executive asks for information under subsection (2) (a) , a day the person gives the requested information, and any days in between; or
any later day agreed between the administering executive and the person.
