BIOSECURITY ACT 2015 - SECT 131

Biosecurity measures may be required in relation to goods

Note 1:   This Division also applies in relation to exposed goods in relation to which an exposed goods order is in force. This Division applies to those goods as if they were subject to biosecurity control (see subsection   161(1)).

Note 2:   Sections   626 and 627 deal with abandoned and forfeited goods in relation to which biosecurity measures have been required under this Division.
