Supplementary Submission in response to the Policy Discussion Paper: Better Regulation of Agricultural and Veterinary Chemicals

Anticipated costs from implementation of  a reconsideration scheme

This submission is additional to that made by CropLife Australia (CropLife) on 20 December 2010. This supplementary submission specifically outlines the likely costs that will ultimately be incurred by users of agricultural chemicals should proposals for a re-registration scheme proceed. While the ultimate cost of these proposals is dependent upon the final form of the proposal, CropLife has made conservative assumptions regarding the likely cost of implementation.
