In limited circumstances, certification from industry quality assurance schemes are accepted as a form of certification, such as the Victorian Seed Potato Association (VicSPA) scheme, and the Queensland Banana Approved Nursery (QBAN) scheme. Plant Health Declarations are not an accepted certification type in NSW (apart from Notification 15). Information on pre-importation inspection, certification and treatment requirements may be obtained from the NSW DPI Plant Biosecurity legislation page or by phoning NSW DPI Regulatory Services 02 6391 3100. For more information on the ICA scheme and for access to procedures relevant to NSW visit the Subcommittee on Domestic Quarantine & Market Access site. 5.6 Permits Permits under section 16 of the Act are not automatically issued and the inclusion in this publication of the movement conditions that may be included within a permit does not advocate approval of any individual permit. Each proposed movement is assessed on a case-by-case basis according to the risk associated with the movement. At least five (5) working days is required to process an application and prepare a permit. Contact the Unit for further information, or for an application form visit the NSW DPI Plant Biosecurity permits site. Some movement conditions specified in the Act’s subordinate legislation are amended through “Class of Persons” permits. These permits may be found under the relevant subordinate legislation in this document. Contact the Plant Product Integrity and Standards Unit, or visit the NSW DPI website for a permit application form. Alternatively, send an enquiry email to [email protected]. 6. RESOURCE There are three (3) summary tables in this resource that may be used as a guide to regulated articles in NSW. All three (3) summary tables should be checked to see if an article is regulated in NSW: Table 1 – The summary of Regulated Articles due to Orders and Proclamations in NSW groups all specific references to articles in the subordinate legislation into categories of regulated articles. This summary excludes movement conditions for host produce for Queensland Fruit Fly and Mediterranean Fruit Fly. An orange box No with the word “No” against a regulated article means that either the article is prohibited in NSW, or that there is a condition of entry which may be found in the indicated Proclamation, Notification, Order or Director’s Approval. (See Table 1, pages 7-8.) Table 2 – The NSW Mediterranean Fruit Fly Approved Treatments Summary provides a list of Mediterranean Fruit Fly (MFF) host produce, and a guide for permitting the entry of host produce from a MFF endemic or outbreak area, through the application of approved treatments. These approved treatments are part of the Interstate Certification Assurance scheme and can be found in the Order. (See Table 2, pages 9-10.) Sources of information for Table 2 can be found Version 5 – May 2014 5 Plant Quarantine Manual – Entry Conditions for NSW in the following websites for: the relevant ICA’s from the Subcommittee on Domestic Quarantine & Market Access ICA Database site; tropical fruit approved for irradiation treatment from the Food Standards Australia & New Zealand Food irradiation website and the Fenthion (Lebaycid) label from the APVMA website. Additional sources of information for Table 2 are Domestic Quarantine Market Access Working Group (DQMAWG) and Certification Services Working Group (CSWG) minutes. (See Table 2, pages 9-10) Table 3 – The NSW Pest Free Area (PFA) Approved Treatments summary provides a list of Queensland Fruit Fly (QFF) host produce, and a guide for permitting the entry of host produce from a QFF endemic or outbreak area, through the application of approved treatments. These approved treatments are part of the Interstate Certification Assurance scheme and can be found in the Order. Sources of information for Table 3 can be found for: suspended use patterns for Dimethoate and Fenthion from the APVMA website; the relevant ICA’s from Domestic Quarantine & Market Access ICA Database site, and tropical fruit approved for irradiation treatment from the Food Standards Australia & New Zealand Food irradiation site.
