COMPETENT NATIONAL AUTHORITIES UNDER ARTICLES 7 AND 17 OF THE UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION AGAINST ILLICIT TRAFFIC IN NARCOTIC DRUGS AND PSYCHOTROPIC SUBSTANCES, 1988 : AUTORITÉS NATIONALES COMPÉTENTES AU TITRE DES ARTICLES 7 ET 17 DE LA CONVENTION DES NATIONS UNIES CONTRE LE TRAFIC ILLICITE DE STUPÉFIANTS ET DE SUBSTANCES PSYCHOTROPES, 1988 : ORGANISMOS NACIONALES COMPETENTES A LOS EFECTOS DE LOS ARTÍCULOS 7 Y 17 DE LA CONVENCIÓN DE LAS NACIONES UNIDAS CONTRA EL TRÁFICO ILÍCITO DE ESTUPEFACIENTES Y SUSTANCIAS SICOTRÓPICAS, 1988

Purposes of amendment The proposed amendment would allow the Protocol to be modified with a view to making new substances “controlled substances” within the meaning of Article 2(4) of the Protocol. Powers would be given to apply control measures with respect to those substances. Moreover it is proposed that there might be a more general power to modify the Protocol to deal with matters arising out of or related to the control of those new substances. This power could be used by the MOP, for example, to introduce new trade measures relating to the new substances by the modification of Article 4, or to introduce new reporting requirements relating to the new substances by the modification of Article 7.

The UN Model Regulation (13th Edition) states clearly that substances not listed but that have the same characteristics as any one of those listed are also Category A and if there is any doubt as to whether or not a substance is Category A, then it should be classified as Category A. (...) Canada disagrees with calling the Category A and B substances "biological agents". There does not seem to be any need for the guidance document to justify a different name for these substances. (...) It should also be noted that the Sub-Committee is still considering improvements to the criteria in cooperation with WHO and other intergovernmental and non-governmental organizations concerned, and that it is likely that in the near future infectious wastes will have to be classified as follows: Waste containing category A substances would be assigned to UN No. 2814, INFECTIOUS SUBSTANCES AFFECTING HUMANS, or UN No 2900, INFECTIOUS SUBSTANCES AFFECTING ANIMALS only; Waste containing category B substances, whether or not in culture, would be assigned to UN No. 3373, BIOLOGICAL SUBSTANCE, CATEGORY B or UN No. 3291 CLINICAL WASTE, UNSPECIFIED, N.O.S. or (BIO) MEDICAL WASTE, N.O.S. or REGULATED MEDICAL WASTE, N.O.S.
