vehicle standards in certain respects, or to a certain extent, in order to be entered on the RAV; and
 (b) the vehicle complies with the applicable national road vehicle standards as in force at the time the vehicle is entered on the RAV, except in those respects or to that extent.
Note: Subsection 19(3) permits the Secretary to grant a road vehicle type approval in respect of a type of vehicle that does not comply with the applicable national road vehicle standards, provided that the non‑compliance is only in minor and inconsequential respects, or, failing that, the type of vehicle complies with those standards to an extent that makes it suitable for use on a public road in Australia.
In that event, paragraph 23(2)(e) requires that the road vehicle type approval specify the respects in which, or the extent to which, vehicles of the relevant type are not required to comply with the applicable national road vehicle standards in order to be entered on the RAV under the approval.
