5.1 Authority to Test
All Athletes under the jurisdiction of a National Federation shall be subject to In-Competition Testing and Out of
competition testing by
a) IBU,
b) the Athlete's National Federation,
c) and any other Anti-Doping Organization responsible for Testing at a IBU Competition or Event in which they
participate.
[Comment to Article 5.1: Target Testing is specified because random Testing, or even weighted random Testing, does not ensure that all of the appropriate Athletes will be tested (e.g., world-class Athletes, Athletes whose performances have dramatically improved over a short period of time, Athletes whose coaches have had other
Athletes test positive, etc.). Obviously, Target Testing must not be used for any purposes other than legitimate Doping Control. The Code makes it clear that Athletes have no right to expect that they will be tested only on a random basis. Similarly, it does not impose any reasonable suspicion or probable cause requirement for Target
Testing]
