This ensures customs officials apply the correct rules when inspecting meat shipments.\n* **Expands coverage to hares:** Adds **hares** to Item 8, which previously only mentioned rabbits. This means export restrictions now apply equally to both animals.\n\n**Who it affects:**\nMeat exporters (particularly those trading rabbit or hare products) and customs officers enforcing export controls.\n\n**Why it matters:**\nIt keeps Australia's export control system aligned with changes to meat export laws and ensures hares cannot be exported through a loophole."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/c1936l00141","history":"/api/acts/c1936l00141/history","analysis":"/api/acts/c1936l00141/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/c1936l00141/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/c1936l00141/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/c1936l00141/documents"}}
