Information about this reprint This regulation is reprinted as at 1 July 2009. The reprint shows the law as amended by all amendments that commenced on or before that day (Reprints Act 1992 s 5(c)). The reprint includes a reference to the law by which each amendment was made—see list of legislation and list of annotations in endnotes. Also see list of legislation for any uncommenced amendments. This page is specific to this reprint. See previous reprints for information about earlier changes made under the Reprints Act 1992. A table of reprints is included in the endnotes. Also see endnotes for information about— • when provisions commenced • editorial changes made in earlier reprints. Spelling The spelling of certain words or phrases may be inconsistent in this reprint or with other reprints because of changes made in various editions of the Macquarie Dictionary (for example, in the dictionary, ‘lodgement’ has replaced ‘lodgment’). Variations of spelling will be updated in the next authorised reprint. Dates shown on reprints Reprints dated at last amendment All reprints produced on or after 1 July 2002, authorised (that is, hard copy) and unauthorised (that is, electronic), are dated as at the last date of amendment. Previously reprints were dated as at the date of publication. If an authorised reprint is dated earlier than an unauthorised version published before 1 July 2002, it means the legislation was not further amended and the reprint date is the commencement of the last amendment. If the date of an authorised reprint is the same as the date shown for an unauthorised version previously published, it merely means that the unauthorised version was published before the authorised version. Also, any revised edition of the previously published unauthorised version will have the same date as that version. Replacement reprint date If the date of an authorised reprint is the same as the date shown on another authorised reprint it means that one is the replacement of the other.

(2) A quality assurance test is a request test relating to measurement (other than a test to verify or re-verify an instrument under the Act or the National Measurement Act). (3) A quality assurance test may be done even if no quality assurance certificate is to be issued based on a result of the test. (4) A quality assurance certificate is a certificate based on a result of a test relating to measurement (other than a Reprint 2C effective 1 July 2009 Page 5

Trade Measurement Administration Regulation 1991 Part 1 Preliminary [s 6] certificate about verification or re-verification under the Act or the National Measurement Act). (5) A quality assurance certificate may be based on a result of any appropriate test, whether or not a quality assurance test.
