Proposal
The Protected Symbols Determination has been remade without significant amendment (now the Communications Legislation (Protected Symbols) Determination 2023). In remaking the Protected Symbols Determination the only amendment is to remove the A-Tick and C-Tick marks as protected symbols. In 2013, the A-Tick and C-Tick were consolidated into a single compliance mark – the Regulatory Compliance Mark (RCM). After a 3-year transition period that concluded in February 2016, suppliers have only been permitted to use the RCM for newly supplied equipment in Australia since that time.
