Is there a difference between low volume and ICV?

Individually constructed vehicles are currently allowed to be assessed for compliance using alternative procedures and exempted from the occupant protection ADR's (Crash testing) because the Federal Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Local Government has a scheme that allows low volume production cars to be complied in this way. That is, the state authorities that register ICV's allow the same freedoms allowed low volume cars by relying on the federal system. (This is set out in the Administrator of Vehicle Standards Admin circular 0-2-13, see RVCS website http://rvcs.dotars.gov.au/). This could be readily extended to allow an exemption from the requirement to have ESC fitted for these vehicles.
