Risk analysis reports may be used by the Minister for the Environment in making a determination under the EPBC Act to include the species on the List of specimens taken to be suitable for live import (the Live Import List).
There is also an approval process within the department under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999(EPBC Act). The department assesses the risk under the Biosecurity Act 2015. Based on the risk analysis, the department provides a recommendation to allow release only if the risk is considered acceptable. The risk analyses are based upon an initial submission for release of a biological control agent, which contains the results of host specificity testing. Risk analyses for biological control agents are undertaken within the Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment by technical and scientific experts in consultation with scientific specialists and other stakeholders. A biological control agent is an organism, such as an insect or plant disease, that is used to control a pest species.īefore a biological control agent is released into the Australian environment, it must be established, via risk analysis, that the risk associated with release is very low or negligible, consistent with Australia’s appropriate level of protection (ALOP).
