Risks of fish imports--the 1993 aquatic animal quarantine review.
The rapid expansion of knowledge of fish diseases and pathogens in the past decade has led to a realisation that Australian quarantine policy on fish imports, which has largely evolved on a needs basis, requires substantial revision. As a result, the Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service has commissioned a major review of quarantine policy with regard to risks of disease associated with importation of aquatic animals and their products. The review, to be managed by the Bureau of Resource Sciences, will be carried out this year.
