70—Declaration of controlled notifiable conditions

        (1)         The regulations may declare a disease or medical condition to be a controlled notifiable condition.

        (2)         The Minister may, if he or she considers it to be necessary in the interests of public health because of urgent circumstances, by notice in the Gazette, declare a disease or medical condition to be a controlled notifiable condition.

        (3)         A regulation or declaration under subsection (1) or (2) may be varied from time to time, or may be revoked, but a declaration of the Minister under subsection (2) will, unless revoked sooner, expire 6 months after publication in the Gazette.

        (4)         The revocation or expiry of a declaration of the Minister—

            (a)         does not prevent the disease or medical condition the subject of the declaration being declared to be a controlled notifiable condition by the regulations; and

            (b)         does not prevent the disease or medical condition being the subject of a further declaration of the Minister if the Minister considers that urgent circumstances again warrant the declaration of the disease or medical condition to be a controlled notifiable condition.
