Public consultation on Canada as an applicant country for the import of fresh beef is closed.
The final report has now been published.
We invited feedback about the addition of Canada as an applicant country for the importation of fresh beef, as an addendum to the 2017 beef review.
We received 11 submissions during the consultation process.
Before an import permit application can be considered, the final import conditions need to be developed and published on the Australian Biosecurity Import Conditions (BICON) webpage.
The final report with recommended biosecurity measures, to address the risk of the importation of fresh beef and beef products from Canada and updates on progress, can be found on the Fresh (chilled or frozen) beef and beef products for human consumption webpage.
