19  Analysis—disputed results
  If the results of the analysis of a body sample are disputed by the Immigration and Border Protection worker who provided the sample:
 (a) the second container of the sample, mentioned in subsection 17(3), must be made available for independent testing; and
 (b) all records of the original test must be made available for re‑examination.
Note 1: In practice, the independent testing or re‑examination may be for the purpose only of detecting the presence of alcohol or a prohibited drug, because of possible degradation of the body sample over time.
Note 2: Subsection 17(3) requires the accredited analyst who initially analysed the body sample to keep the second container sealed.
