(1) This section applies in relation to prescribed livestock, prescribed live animals or prescribed animal reproductive material in relation to which a government certificate is in force. (2) For the purposes of paragraph 74(1)(b) of the Act, each of the following changes is prescribed: (a) there are reasonable grounds to suspect that the health or welfare of the livestock or live animals or the health or condition of the animal reproductive material cannot be ensured; (b) there are reasonable grounds to suspect that an importing country requirement relating to the livestock, live animals or animal reproductive material will not be, or is not likely to be, met before the livestock, live animals or animal reproductive material are imported into the importing country; (c) there are reasonable grounds to suspect that a prescribed export condition relating to the livestock, live animals or animal reproductive material has not been complied with in circumstances where the condition should have been complied with.
Note: If a change prescribed by this subsection occurs, the holder of the government certificate must, as soon as practicable, give the issuing body additional or corrected information, to the extent that it is relevant to assessing the matters referred to in paragraph 74(2)(a) to (c) of the Act (see subsection 74(2) of the Act).
