Abstract
Understanding the needs and challenges of industry, community and government is key to ensuring relevant and constructive advice to government. During 2020/21, the Council continued to monitor biosecurity-related developments at national and State levels and proactively engaged with industry, community and government on biosecurity matters. The key areas of advice that were progressed during the year were:
- mechanisms for funding biosecurity in WA
- the effectiveness of WA’s border biosecurity system
- how Western Australians perceive ‘biosecurity’ and their role in pest, weed and disease prevention, surveillance and response; and
- the quadruple bottom line of biosecurity.
