Plain-language summary
Written by a model from the explanatory memorandum; not the record, as at 2020-12-03.
This bill is part of a package that would create a national framework to manage industrial chemicals' ongoing use and disposal, reducing environmental harm and human exposure.
The package would let the Minister set scheduling decisions imposing controls on an industrial chemical across its lifecycle, and this bill would add a cost recovery model for Commonwealth services under that framework.
The bill would allow charges to be prescribed by regulations, covering costs that are neither customs nor excise duties, to recover the Commonwealth's administrative costs.
- Establishes a cost recovery model for administering the industrial chemicals framework.
- Allows charges to be set by regulation for Commonwealth services under the ICEMR Bill.
- Enables recovery of administrative costs where the charge is not a duty of customs or excise.
The Commonwealth and entities involved in the use and disposal of industrial chemicals.
