Introduction
The manufacture, import and export of all these substances is prohibited in Australia unless the correct license is held.
The Act does not put a ban, quota or phase-out on HFCs and PFCs, apart from a ban on importing HFCs in disposable containers. Rather, consistent with the objectives of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, the Act aims to minimise the emission of these gases.
