5‑4 Information for occupier of approved premises where prescribed livestock are to be prepared for export by air
(1) This section applies in relation to an approved arrangement for operations to prepare prescribed livestock for export by air at premises (the approved premises) that are approved under paragraph 8‑5(2)(a) for pre‑export quarantine or isolation of the livestock. (2) The holder of the approved arrangement must give the information referred to in subsection (4) to the occupier of the approved premises where prescribed livestock covered by the approved arrangement are to be held and assembled for export. (3) The information must be given to the occupier of the approved premises as soon as reasonably practicable before the prescribed livestock arrive at the premises. (4) For the purposes of subsection (2), the information is as follows: (a) a description (including number, kind, class and condition) of the prescribed livestock; (b) the dates the prescribed livestock are expected to arrive at, and depart from, the approved premises; (c) the date the prescribed livestock are to be exported; (d) the importing country requirements relating to sourcing, pre‑export quarantine or isolation, treatment and testing, and the exporter’s plans to meet those requirements; (e) the Standards in the Australian Standards for the Export of Livestock that are relevant to the prescribed livestock while they are at the approved premises, and the holder’s plans to meet those Standards; (f) the applicable requirements in this instrument, and the exporter’s plans to meet those requirements.
Note: Section 20 of the Act provides for when goods are exported for the purposes of the Act.
(5) If information given to the occupier of the approved premises under subsection (2) needs to be changed (for example, because it is incomplete or incorrect) or additional information needs to be given, the holder of the approved arrangement must give the changed or additional information to the occupier as soon as reasonably practicable after becoming aware of the relevant facts.
