Mr. Jack Holland (Australia)
Other responsibilities/interests
Over this time, as well as supervising up to 17 staff, I also had a great interest in other environmental chemicals issues
such as dioxins and other persistent organochlorines, and assessment of the proposal to destroy US stocks of chemical
weapons in a purpose built incinerator on Johnston Atoll in the Pacific. Other duties I performed include preparation
of routine or ministerial correspondence, briefings for senior management, particularly in relation to OECD chemicals
activities, preparation and collation of co-ordination comments on Cabinet Submissions and analysis of consultants'
bids for projects. I have also been involved in the UNCED and ESD processes, as well as with the initial development
of the National Pollutants Inventory in Australia.
2. Current Position
Principal Peer Reviewer, Risk Assessment and Policy Section (1 May 2001 to present).
My main task in this position has been to act as “peer reviewer” for the major assessments conducted for the National
Industrial Chemicals Notification and Assessment Scheme (NICNAS) and the National Registration Authority (NRA),
ensuring these are in a very advanced stage prior to consideration and sign off by the Section Director. This has relied
on my extensive experience gained previously while managing the Section. I have also undertaken assessment work,
including some permit applications and finalising both reports for registration of chemicals and those assessed under
Chemical Review due to the absence of staff on leave etc. Major assessments I have assessed/peer reviewed include
decabromo diphenylether (Deca-BDE), HBCD, perfluorobutane sulfonate (PFBS) and perfluorohexanoic acid
(PFHxA, replacements for PFOS and PFOA chemistry, respectively), as well as diuron, and fipronil. I have also been
closely involved with the international assessment of new pesticides under the Global Joint Review (GJR) process
since this started in the mid 2000s, not only peer reviewing but also undertaking some of the actual reviews of the
study summaries myself.
Due to my corporate knowledge and interests I have also continued to make contributions to other areas of both
chemicals assessment and policy, as needed. For example, in this time I have provided detailed comment on briefings
for the POPs Review Committee (POPRC) risk profiles for Annex E, in particular for lindane, endosulfan (including
the review and negotiations to cancel all Australian registrations) and HBCD, as well as commenting on a number of
documents involved with the Risk Management Evaluation under Annex F. I also drafted the environmental
persistence, bioaccumulation and toxicity (PBT) criteria for Australia, which are now routinely employed in our risk
assessments to ensure that new chemicals with POPs-like characteristics are not introduced into the Australian market
place.
In addition I peer reviewed the draft Environment Protection and Heritage Council’s/NChEM’s Risk Assessment
Guidance Manuals for both agricultural and veterinary chemicals and for industrial chemicals to ensure these
accurately reflected our current or future environmental risk assessment practices in this area. I also played a very
similar role in the updating of the Environmental Requirements Part of the AgMORAG, which sets out the
environmental requirements for applicants submitting proposals for registrations of pesticides. I was also the
Australian delegate on the VICH Working Group on Ecotoxicity/Environmental Impact Assessment, which developed
guidelines aimed at harmonising the environmental data requirements for veterinary drugs, attending 5 meetings from
November 2000 to September 2004. When things came to an impasse at the beginning of 2002, I offered and was
accepted to act as editor of the document. In this way I was able to co-ordinate and summarise all the views and had a
major impact on the successful delivery of a final document, which was accepted by all participating regions in
October 2004.
3. Earlier Position:
(February 1978-September 1984)
Chemistry and Quality Control Evaluator (Science 3)
Pharmaceutical Chemistry Section,
National Biological Standards Laboratory,
Department of Health ACT
As an evaluator at NBSL I assessed the chemical and quality control aspects of submissions supplied by
manufacturers in support of applications to import pharmaceutical products, in order to conduct clinical trials or to
market new drugs or formulations. This gave me a broad background in both pharmaceuticals and the pharmaceutical
industry. The position involved examination of the submissions followed by written reports but no actual laboratory
work. I also served as chemistry and pharmacy adviser to the anti-cancer sub-committee of the Australian Drug
Evaluation Committee (ADEC).
