DANGEROUS GOODS (ROAD TRANSPORT) REGULATION 2010 (NO 12 OF 2010) - REG 12

For this regulation, the "subsidiary risk", of dangerous goods is—

        (a)     if a determination under section 29 (1) (c) (Determinations—dangerous goods and packaging) that the goods have a stated subsidiary risk is in effect—the stated subsidiary risk; or

        (b)     if there is no determination under section 29 (1) (c) in effect in relation to the goods—the subsidiary risk determined for the goods in accordance with the ADG code.

Note     Dangerous goods that are able to be assigned to more than 1 UN class or division are assigned a subsidiary risk. This subsidiary risk is any other UN class or division to which the goods also belong. Under the ADG code, if dangerous goods are mentioned in the dangerous goods list, their subsidiary risk is mentioned in the list, col 4 opposite the name and description of those goods, unless the code, ch 3.3 provides for those goods to be assigned a different subsidiary risk.
