Case study: 2009 World Anti-Doping Code implementation
Changes to the World Anti-Doping Code – and its associated international standards – came into operation around the world on 1 January 2009.
Key changes introduced by the new Code and standards include:
- a more flexible regime for imposing sanctions for ADRVs
- changes to how athletes seek exemptions for therapeutic use of prohibited substances
- increased harmonisation of athletes’ requirements to provide whereabouts information, and
- the introduction of a fifth international standard – the International Standard for the Protection of Privacy and Personal Information.
ASADA undertook a major project in 2008 to ensure Australia implemented the principles of the Code and maintained its commitment under the UNESCO Convention against Doping in Sport. Significant components of this project included:
- a review of the updated Code and associated international standards to assess their legislative and operational impacts
- consultation with all major Australian NSOs to ensure their respective anti-doping policies complied with the new Code and standards. By 31 December 2008, all NSOs that were required by the Australian Sports Commission to have anti-doping policies in place had indeed instituted policies that complied with the new Code and standards
- implementation of a revised NAD scheme (tabled in Parliament on 13 October 2008), taking into account the requirements of the new Code and standards
- a review and update of our existing policies and procedures to ensure compliance with the new Code and standards, including the ASADA Sample Collection Manual, and
- a review and update of our existing operational systems to ensure compliance with the new Code and international standards.
