#### 39 Application of Division
(1) This Division applies to an entity if:
(a) the entity handles one or more security‑sensitive biological agents at one or more facilities; and
(b) the entity is not an exempt entity.
> Note: This Division does not apply to the handling of a security‑sensitive biological agent by an entity that gives the Director‑General of the CDC a temporary handling report: see Division 5AA.
(2) If a security‑sensitive biological agent is a toxin in relation to which a reportable quantity is specified in the List of Security‑sensitive Biological Agents, then, for the purposes of this Division, an entity does not handle that toxin at a facility unless the entity handles at that facility at least the reportable quantity of that toxin.
