Emergency aquatic animal responses often involve complex, multi-lateral and inter-jurisdictional arrangements, and also can have specific trade and market access responsibilities that need to managed. Part of maintaining Australia's aquatic biosecurity track record is to improve the awareness and preparedness within specific industry sectors. Since 2005 there has been a number of abalone disease outbreaks, which may have potential trade and market access issues. It is critical that the industry nationally take stock and ensure it captures the wealth of lessons that have been learnt, and gain a common understanding of established procedures and responsibilities, especially how government, processing, commercial fishing and farms can best respond to any future outbreaks.
