** This database is currently being updated to reflect New Zealand's adoption of the GHS system of hazard classification.**

The database is still searchable, but information about the approval status, hazard classification and controls of hazardous substances is incorrect.

To get up-to-date information, refer to this webpage:

You can still search this database for information relating to new organism applications and approvals, which is not affected by this update.
