34 Ban on using animal test data for determining category of introduction for industrial chemical with end use solely in cosmetics

For the purposes of subsection 103(2) of the Act, all circumstances are prescribed, other than circumstances where: (a) both: (i) the person has animal test data that demonstrates that the industrial chemical has a hazard characteristic; and (ii) if the person did not have regard to that data, the category of introduction would be a lower risk category; or (b) animal test data is the only information that can demonstrate whether the industrial chemical has a particular environment hazard characteristic; or (c) both: (i) the animal test data has been derived from tests conducted on animals involving a chemical other than the industrial chemical that is to be introduced by the person; and (ii) the other chemical is not an industrial chemical introduced by the person solely for an end use in cosmetics.

Note: For paragraph (a), the category of introduction would be a lower risk category if, for example, the category of introduction would be exempted if the data were not had regard to but reported if the data were had regard to.
