WorkSafe has revoked the Health and Safety at Work (Class Exemption - Fumigation at Marsden Point) Notice 2020 (the notice).

The notice exempted a specified class of persons from compliance with regulation 14.38(1) of the Health and Safety at Work (Hazardous Substances) Regulations 2017, which requires a minimum buffer zone to be set for any fumigation using methyl bromide. The notice is revoked as the Environmental Protection Authority has banned the use of methyl bromide on ships.

The revocation takes effect on 1 August 2023.
