Here you can find products that have been suspended or removed from approved product lists as they do not meet the terms and conditions of the program.
Products can be suspended and removed from product lists for up to three months while corrective actions are undertaken by the supplier. If corrective actions are made within the given time frame, then the suspension will be lifted and the products restored to the product list.
If corrective actions are not made within the given time frame, the products will be de-listed and they will have to reapply to join the product list once it can demonstrate it meets the program’s terms and conditions.
When a product is suspended or de-listed it is no longer eligible for small-scale technology certificates (STCs). Suspended products are ineligible for the period they are suspended, and de-listed products are ineligible after the date of de-listing.
You can also view Product Recalls, which provide details of products that have received general recall notices from the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC). If a product is recalled by the regulator, it may be removed from our product lists if it constitutes a breach of the product listing terms and conditions.
