When to use it
Use when livestock have arrived, or are about to move, between Queensland properties that do not share a property identification code. The page states a 48-hour report. It does not state the number of animals that makes a place registerable.
Used for these tasks
Each task page says how far AI may help with the task and what the lawyer must review.
How AI may be used
AI may list the property codes, the species and the arrival time against the NLIS page; the lawyer decides whether this movement must be reported and who reports it.
AI may
- Record the origin and destination property identification codes and whether they differ
- Record the species, the number of animals, and the time they arrived
- Calculate 48 hours from the arrival time the file states, and list a missing device or a missing report
AI must not
- Must not lodge a movement on the NLIS database
- Must not state how many animals make a place a registerable biosecurity entity. The page says a threshold and does not give the number
- Must not order a device. The official order form was not opened
The lawyer checks
- The animals are cattle, sheep, goats or pigs, and the properties have different property identification codes
- Each animal carries an approved device, or will be retagged before it leaves if a device was lost
- The movement is reported to the NLIS database within 48 hours of arrival at the destination
- A device order, if one is needed, is the Biosecurity Queensland form signed by a biosecurity inspector
Method: how the Green, Yellow and Red levels are decided. This is guidance for planning, not legal advice.
