188 Hazard identified in design during manufacture
If a manufacturer of plant informs the designer of the plant that
there is a hazard in the design of the plant for which the designer
has not provided a control measure, the designer must:
(a) revise the information originally supplied to the manufacturer
to ensure that:
(i) the risk is eliminated so far as is reasonably practicable;
or
(ii) if it is not reasonably practicable to eliminate the risk, the
risk is minimised so far as is reasonably practicable; or
(b) notify the manufacturer, in writing, that the designer is of the
opinion that it is not necessary to revise the information
originally supplied to the manufacturer to ensure compliance
with this Part.
