If the National Anti -Doping Organization refers the matter to WADA for review, the TUE granted by World Skate remains valid for international -level Competition and Out-of-Competition Testing (but is not valid for national -level Competition ) pending WADA’s decision.
If the National Anti -Doping Organization does not refer the matter to WADA for review, the TUE granted by World Skate becomes valid for national -level Competitio n as well when the twenty -one (21) day review deadline expires.
4.4.5 Retroactive TUE Applications If World Skate chooses to collect a Sample from an Athlete who is not an International -Level Athlete or a National -Level Athlete , and that Athlete is Using a Prohibited Substance or Prohibited Method for therapeutic reasons, World Skate must permit that Athlete to apply for a retroactive TUE.
4.4.6 Expiration, Withdrawal or Reversal of a TUE 4.4.6.1 A TUE granted pursuant to these Anti -Doping Rules: (a) shall expire automatically at the end of any term for which it was granted, without the need for any further notice or other formality; (b) will be withdrawn if the Athlete does not promptly comply with any requirements or conditions imposed by the TUEC upon grant of the TUE; (c) may be withdrawn by the TUEC if it is subsequently determined that the criteria for grant of a TUE are not in fact met; or (d) may be reversed on review by WADA or on appeal.
4.4.6.2 In such event, the Athlete shall not be subject to any Consequences based on their Use or Possession or Administration of the Prohibited Substance or Prohibited Method in question in accordance with the TUE prior to t he effective date of expiry, withdrawal , or reversal of the World Skate Anti -Doping Rules Page 17 of 67 TUE.
The review pursuant to Article 5.1.1.1 of the International Standard for Results Management of an Adverse Analytical Finding , reported shortly after the TUE expiry, withdrawal or reversal, shall include consideration of whether such finding is consistent with Use of the Prohibited Substance or Prohibited Method prior to that date, in which event no anti -doping rule violation shall be asserted.
4.4.7 Reviews and Appeals of TUE Decisions 4.4.7.1 WADA must review World Skate ’s decision not to recognize a TUE granted by the National Anti -Doping Organization that is referred to WADA by the Athlete or the Athlete’s National Anti -Doping Organization .
