(1) A GEMS determination may specify, for a product class covered by the determination, a limited grandfathering period for products in the product class.
(2) The limited grandfathering period:
(a) starts when the GEMS determination comes into force; and
(b) ends at a time specified in the GEMS determination.
Note: The effect of specifying a limited grandfathering period is that a product in the product class imported into, or whose last process of manufacture is performed in, Australia before the GEMS determination comes into force might not be able to be supplied or used for a commercial purpose after the end of that period unless:
(a) the product complies with the GEMS determination; and
(b) the model of the product is registered against the GEMS determination.
