The risk assessment is not based on individual packages. It's based on the entire system the country has in place, including its veterinary infrastructure, its surveillance, its research, its control measures for bee movements, the prevalence of any disease we are concerned about and also its reporting. Every country and national competent authority, as we call it, has obligations under the World Trade Organization SPS agreement and also under the World Organisation for Animal Health to have certain measures in place to protect its bee health. Also, when they export and certify that these bees are safe, they have to meet certain parameters.
The risk assessment is based on a number of scientific parameters, as I mentioned. Once we are satisfied with all the control measures that are in place, then we look at how we can permit imports from those countries. We also have conducted audits in other countries, going on site to evaluate for ourselves that the measures that have been conveyed to us are actually in place.
There are a number of measures in place to ensure that the bees we import are safe and are free of diseases, pests and parasites.
