Development of contingency plans for significant aquatic animal diseases is a critical first step in the management of disease outbreaks. In this respect, aquatic animal health policy development is lagging behind terrestrial animal health policy by approximately 20 years.
At the Melbourne workshops, all sectors of the fishing industry strongly supported the need for a national approach to aquatic animal disease control issues and identified the writing of contingency plans for disease incursions to be an important task. Also they noted there was a need to build on the unanimous support for this contingency planning process and there was an expectation that some generic, sectoral plans could be developed very rapidly.
1. Write four generic (enclosed water
open freshwater
net/open culture marine
open marine) contingency planning manuals for the occurence of significant diseases in aquatic animals to draft form.
2. Following consultation with industry, State government and Commonwealth government representatives, produce four final generic contingency planning manuals.

Aquatic Animal Health Subprogram: enhancement of the emergency disease management capability in Victoria - developing a Victorian Control Centres Management Manual
AQUAVETPLAN and its associated manuals, and in particular the ‘AQUAVETPLAN Control Centres Management Manual’ provide the necessary framework for the development of a Victorian management/operational manual that would meet the planning needs in relation to aquatic animal diseases. The...

1. To examine and test the skills and abilities of the participants in group problem solving and decision making skills relating to emergency response procedures.
2. To increase participants knowledge of communication routes to be used in an emergency disease response by working through a scenario which mimics a real emergency situation.
3. To clearly define the roles within and between the various agencies involved and how they fit within the WA Emergency plan and AQUAPLAN frameworks.
4. To improve participants ability to mange tasks by prioritising a number of competing demands during the operational phase of an emergency response.
5. To increase participants understanding of the operational procedures in the Disease Emergency Response.
6. To familiarise participants with operational practices on a typical non maxima oyster lease.
7. To identify key areas for improvement in emergency management procedures across a range of subjects including planning, communication, staffing and resourcing.
8. To document an emergency response plan that can be implemented by industry stakeholders.
9. To familiarise AFFA staff with the problems inherent in managing disease in a remote location.

A two day disease emergency response workshop was held at Geraldton, Western Australia, in October 2002. The objective of the exercise was to test the industry and government response to a disease emergency among non-maxima pearl farms at the Abrolhos Islands. The exercise was coordinated by staff from the Commonwealth Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry Australia and involved regional and head office staff from the Western Australian Departments of Fisheries and Agriculture as well as industry representatives. During the two day exercise the participants worked through emergency scenarios as well as having to respond to unexpected obstacles proposed by the exercise coordinators.
The outcome of the exercise was the education of the participants in the operational procedures involved in a disease emergency response at the State level, an evaluation of the response with suggestions for improvements in emergency management planning, the documentation of an emergency management plan and input into the new Environmental Code of Practice for the industry.
