                                                 (i) for the same end use for which the industrial chemical is to be introduced in Australia by the person; and
                                                 (ii) for a volume of the industrial chemical that is the same or higher than the volume of the industrial chemical that is to be introduced in Australia in a registration year by the person; and
                                                 (c) the risks to the environment from the introduction and use of the industrial chemical are no higher in Australia than in the overseas jurisdiction, as determined in accordance with the Guidelines; and

                                                 (i) a hazard to the environment from the industrial chemical that is not identified in the international assessment or evaluation; or
                                                 (ii) a hazard to the environment from the industrial chemical that is identified in the international assessment or evaluation and indicates an increase in the severity of the hazard; and
