G/SPS/N/AUS/554

Description

Following a review of Australia’s import conditions for fresh Persian/Tahitian limes, the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry is removing the risk management requirement for citrus scab (Elsinöe fawcettii syn. Sphaceloma fawcettii) for Tahitian limes from New Caledonia. The purpose of removing this requirement for New Caledonia is to ensure citrus scab is managed consistently across all fresh lime import pathways into Australia.
