CASR 61.1300

(A) a current medical certificate of the class required for the exercise of the privileges of the licence; or
(B) a medical exemption to exercise the privileges of the licence; or
(ii) if the test is for a recreational pilot licence--the applicant holds:
(A) a current class 1 or 2 medical certificate or recreational aviation medical practitioner's certificate; or
