Does NOT	Doesn't apply to food. Doesn't mean organic.	Australia has multiple competing organic certifiers — NASAA is one of seven, not the dominant national mark (that's ACO).	Doesn't cover non-textile components (zips, buttons, prints) beyond the chemical-restriction list.	Provincial sales-only operations are not legally required to carry it (though many do voluntarily).
