The implemtation delays are driven solely by the Governments failure to develop and implement their new border infrastructure and IT model on time. This situation remains unchanged.

There are countless areas of uncertainty were we simpy cannot get the necessary information to support adequate business preparation.

The questions asked of Government haven't changed in years and the so called "support & advice" doesn't answer the questions including attendance on countless online events.

We remain keen to find effective solutions and share our extensive knowledge.

As an industry we fully acknowledge our biosecurity responsibilities. However the Government should also accept their responsibility to feed and flower the nation.

We again request they urgently resolve the uncertainty for suppliers of home grown and imported fresh produce.
