Overview

The Hazardous Substances and New Organisms Act represents a major change to the statutory basis of hazardous substance and new organism management, a change that almost every business needs to be aware of. Risk management guidelines and a new approval process for introduction of these materials must be worked through, and important transition dates must be prepared and complied with.

A Practical Guide to the Hazardous Substances and New Organisms Act provides a succinct overview of New Zealand’s practical management of hazardous substances and new organisms. This text outlines the purposes of the Act, its importance, practical application, enforcement, and the all-important compliance obligations for New Zealand businesses. This text offers clear guidance, supported by forms, checklists and easy-to-follow flowcharts, making it an ideal one-stop reference point for this complex area of law.
