Biosecurity Matters
Biosecurity Matters is a bi-monthly, online newsletter providing readers with a greater understanding of the department's work in managing biosecurity risks overseas, at the border and within Australia.
It contains stories about important biosecurity matters, pest and disease discoveries, events, news for importers and exporters, as well as amusing and interesting biosecurity seizures from our airports, seaports and mail centres.
The newsletter was previously published as a quarterly, hardcopy publication, but is now available as a bi-monthly, online newsletter.
