Specific mines safety exemptions applied by a mine under MSIA Legislation will continue to be available in SRS for users with security roles; albeit without the ability to make any amendments under the old legislation. These exemptions have been carried across in SRS (‘transitioned’), with varying expiry dates (Refer to the specific exemption).
