13AA  Simplified outline
  The following is a simplified outline of this Part:

      This Part deals with safety approvals.
      A non‑State operator may apply for a safety approval in relation to an activity (other than a mining activity) to be carried on in the Antarctic.
      The Minister may grant the approval if the Minister is satisfied that the operator has or will have certain contingency plans, and insurance or other arrangements, in relation to the activity.
      Mandatory conditions relating to those matters are imposed on all safety approvals and those conditions cannot be varied or revoked. The Minister may also impose further conditions on a safety approval, and may vary or revoke those conditions.
      If the Minister is satisfied that it is necessary to do so, the Minister may vary a safety approval on his or her own initiative or at the request of the holder of the approval.
      The Minister may suspend or revoke a safety approval if the Minister is satisfied that there has been non‑compliance with the conditions imposed on the approval or that the suspension or revocation is appropriate in all the circumstances.
      The Minister must cause a register of safety approvals to be kept.
