(2)  An application for approval under paragraph (1) shall be accompanied by an application fee of such amount as determined by the Safety Authority and the fee shall not be refunded notwithstanding that the application may not be granted.
(3)  Where controlled goods of any type, class or description have been tested and certified to have complied with internationally recognised safety standards by an independent testing laboratory or any other regulatory authority or a laboratory operated by a manufacturer recognised by the Safety Authority, the applicant shall submit the certificate or a certified true copy thereof together with such technical literature, information or data as the Authority may require to the Authority in support of the application for approval.
(4)  The Safety Authority may, in its discretion, waive the requirement of any applicant to comply with any provision in paragraph (3).
(5)  Where no certificate is submitted under paragraph (3) or where the Safety Authority is of the opinion that such a certificate or the related literature, information or data is not sufficient for the purposes of approval, the applicant shall deliver to the Authority such samples of the type, class or description of controlled goods and such other relevant or related information including drawings, photographs, pamphlets, data and technical literature, as the Authority may require.

(b)the nature of the article; and
(c)the catalogue or type number of the manufacturer, or any other means of distinguishing the sample.
(7)  Where the sample is of such a size or nature as to preclude a label being attached or affixed thereto, it may be placed in a container to which a label with the particulars referred to in paragraph (6) is attached or affixed.
