Post-implementation Review (PIR)

This Post-implementation Review provides for the formal public and industry consultation process on CASR Part 92 – Consignment and Carriage of Dangerous Goods.

It is the objective of CASA in presenting this review, to provide, as far as possible, a process which taken in its entirety, minimise the costs to CASA and industry, promote the safe handling and carriage of dangerous goods on aircraft, meet the ICAO requirements and are consistent with those of other leading aviation States.

While the regulations incorporate the Technical Instructions, Part 92 also contains regulations that expand on, and take precedence over, the corresponding provisions of that document without being inconsistent with its intent. The more detailed expression of these requirements in the regulations will enable the industry to better understand, and therefore comply with, the regulations.
