Under section 18A(1) of the National Law, a person approved as an ELNO under section 15
of the National Law must, in accordance with the Operating Requirements, establish and maintain Interoperability between the ELN operated by the ELNO and each ELN operated by another ELNO.
Under section 18A(2) of the National Law, the Registrar may waive compliance with the Interoperability Requirement if the Registrar is satisfied the granting of the waiver is reasonably necessary in all the circumstances.
Waivers are requested by applying to ARNECC if the waiver is intended to apply in more than one State or Territory, or to the Registrar in the particular State or Territory when the waiver is intended to apply in a particular jurisdiction only.
