85. Restrictions on use of non-human hominids---(1) No person may
 carry out any research, testing, or teaching involving the use of a
 non-human hominid unless such use has first been approved by the
 Director-General and the research, testing, or teaching is carried out
 in accordance with any conditions imposed by the Director-General.

   (2) The Director-General may, in giving approval under subsection (1),
 impose, as conditions of that approval, such conditions as the
 Director-General thinks fit.

   (3) The Director-General may from time to time, by notice in writing
 to any person holding an approval under sub- section (1),---
   (a) Revoke any condition of that approval:
   (b) Revoke any condition of that approval, and impose another
         condition in its place:
   (c) Amend any condition of that approval.

   (4) The Director-General must consult with the National Animal Ethics
 Advisory Committee before exercising the powers conferred by subsection
 (1) or subsection (2) or subsection (3).

   (5) The Director-General must not give approval under subsection (1)
 unless he or she is satisfied---
   (a) That the use of the non-human hominid in the research, testing, or
         teaching is in the best interests of the non-human hominid; or

   (b) That the use of the non-human hominid in the research, testing, or
         teaching is in the interests of the species to which the
         non-human hominid belongs and that the benefits to be derived
         from the use of the non-human hominid in the research, testing,
         or teaching are not outweighed by the likely harm to the
         non-human hominid.

   (6) The Director-General must monitor the carrying out of any
 research, testing, or teaching to which an approval given under
 subsection (1) relates.

   (7) A person commits an offence who contravenes subsection (1).
