          (b) in force at the commencement of this Standard.

0.3.2. This Standard also repeals each instrument made under section 7 of the Motor Vehicle Standards Act 1989 that creates a vehicle standard with the name Australian Design Rule 25/01 — Anti-Theft Lock, if there are no other vehicle standards created by that instrument, or amendments to vehicle standards made by that instrument, that are still in force at the commencement of this Standard.
Purpose and SCOPE

This Australian Design Rule (ADR) is part of the Australian motor vehicle standards system and is a nation standard for the purposes of the Motor Vehicle Standards Act 1989.

The function of this Australian Design Rule is to specify requirements for a lock to inhibit unauthorised use of a vehicle and to minimise the possibility of inadvertent adjustment of steering locks to the anti-theft position when the vehicle is in motion.

APPLICABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION

This ADR applies to the design and construction of vehicles as set out in the table hereunder. The /01 Rule differs from the /00 Rule in that it adds new technical requirements (Section 25.3 - a wear producing test and a torque strength test) derived from ECE Regulation 18/01. The ECE R 18/01 is an acceptable Alternative Standard

There are no 'Acceptable Prior Rules' in the Applicability Table.  The Package 9 issue differs only in the explanatory text of this Applicability Section.
