7  Application for waste plastic export licence—requirements
 (1) For the purposes of paragraphs 172(1)(c) and (d) of the Act, this section prescribes:
 (a) information that must be included in an application under section 33 of the Act for a waste plastic export licence; and
 (b) documents that must accompany such an application.
 (2) For each kind of regulated waste plastic intended for export under the licence, the application must nominate a waste plastic specification with which that kind of plastic will comply.
 (3) If a kind of regulated waste plastic (other than processed engineered fuel) intended for export under the licence is intended for export both before 1 July 2022 and on or after 1 July 2022, the application must nominate for the purposes of subsection (2):
 (a) a specification for the plastic intended for export before 1 July 2022; and
 (b) a specification for the plastic intended for export on or after 1 July 2022.
Note: The specification referred to in paragraph (b) may or may not be the same as that referred to in paragraph (a). In deciding whether to grant the licence, the Minister considers different matters in relation to the nominated specification depending on whether the plastic is intended for export before, or on or after, 1 July 2022 (see section 8).
 (4) If a nominated specification is not a listed waste plastic specification, the application must be accompanied by a copy of the nominated specification.
 (5) The application must include information demonstrating that the regulated waste plastic intended for export under the licence will be processed prior to export to comply with the nominated specification for the plastic.
