The case before the court was the Agricultural and Veterinary Chemicals (Control of Use) Order (No. 3) 2001, made by the Minister for Primary Industries, Water and Environment, under the Agricultural and Veterinary Chemicals (Control of Use) Act 1995. The order regulated the application and sale of tributyltin antifouling chemical products and rescinded the Agricultural and Veterinary Chemicals (Control of Use) Order (No. 2) 2001.

The court noted that the Minister had the power to make the order under the Act and that the order was in accordance with the Act. The court also found that the order was necessary to protect the environment and human health from the harmful effects of tributyltin antifouling chemical products.
