Upon request by WADA , the laboratory or Anti-Doping Organization in possession of the Sample or data 31 [Comment to Article 6.4: The objective of this Article is to extend the principle of “Intelligent Testing” to the Sample analysis menu so as to most effectively and efficiently detect doping. |
It is recognized that the resources available to fight doping are limited and that increasing the Sample analysis menu may, in some sports and countries, reduce the number of Samples which can be analyzed. |
]24 / IWF 2021 ANTI-DOPING RULES› IWF 2021 ANTI-DOPING RULESshall immediately grant access to and enable WADA to take physical possession of the Sample or data. |
If WADA has not provided prior notice to the laboratory or Anti-Doping Organization before taking possession of a Sample or data, it shall provide such notice to the laboratory and each Anti-Doping Organization whose Samples or data have been taken by WADA within a reasonable time after taking possession. |
After analysis and any investigation of a seized Sample or data, WADA may direct another Anti-Doping Organization with authority to test the Athlete to assume Results Management responsibility for the Sample or data if a potential anti-doping rule violation is discovered.32ARTICLE 7RESULTS MANAGEMENT : RESPONSIBIL... |
Where necessary, the laboratory and/or the Anti-Doping Organization shall assist WADA in ensuring that the seized Sample or data are not delayed in exiting the applicable country. |
WADA would not, of course, unilaterally take possession of Samples or analytical data without good cause related to a potential anti-doping rule violation, non-compliance by a Signatory or doping activities by another Person. |
However, the decision as to whether good cause exists is for WADA to make in its discretion and shall not be subject to challenge. |
In particular, whether there is good cause or not shall not be a defense against an anti-doping rule violation or its Conse -quences. |

7.7 Retirement from Sport35 If an Athlete or other Person retires while the IWF’s Results Management process is underway, IWF retains authority to complete its Results Management process. |
If an Athlete or other Person retires before any Results Management process has begun, and IWF would have had Results Management authority over the Athlete or other Person at the time the Athlete or other Person committed an anti-doping rule violation, IWF has authority to conduct Results Management . |
34 [Comment to Article 7.5: Results Management decisions include Provisional Suspensions. |
Each decision by IWF should address whether an anti-doping rule violation was committed and all Consequences flow -ing from the violation, including any Disqualifications other than Disqualification under Article 10.1 (which is left to the ruling body for an Event). |
Pursuant to Article 15, such decision and its imposition of Consequences shall have automatic effect in every sport in every country. |
