Isn't it a problem that, if a substance that is not the intention of this act is captured, the onus is on the importer to establish that it does not have a psychoactive effect? The question I return to is a question I asked just before the dinner break, which is: how does the importer establish that a substance does not have a psychoactive effect? What is the test to establish that claim?
