The Health and Safety at Work (Hazardous Substances—Specification of Design Standards for Refillable Cylinders) Safe Work Instrument 2018 specifies design standards for refillable cylinders, other than fire extinguishers.
Principal SWI
Amendment
Consolidated safe work instruments
When a principal SWI is amended, WorkSafe also publishes a consolidated SWI. This makes it easy to see all the requirements set by a SWI, including any amendments, in a single place.
Although a consolidated SWI is a useful summary, it is not the official version of the SWI.
Key points
- A consolidated SWI combines the principal (original) SWI with any later amendments.
- Unlike the principal SWI and the amended SWI, which are both a form of legislation, a consolidated SWI is for reference only and has no official status.
- The consolidated SWI is based on the law at the time that the SWI was consolidated.
