The National Management Group (NMG) for Varroa destructor met on 25 July 2024 to consider an update on implementation of the National Transition to Management Response Plan (T2M Plan).
The NMG agreed to extend the timeframe for completing all activities to 9 February 2026, within the originally endorsed budget. This provides flexibility to ensure that activities can be timed to deliver the greatest benefit.
Further information about response activities including upcoming training for beekeepers is available through your local department responsible for agriculture. You can find out more about how we respond to plant pest and disease incidents at outbreak.gov.au.
