ABSTRACT
Risk-based decision-making is a key component of an effective biosecurity system. This report summarises the main decision types made within New Zealand’s biosecurity system, with details on what triggers the decision, what legal framework applies, decision criteria, the risk assessment approach, information used, timeframe, and who is assessing the risk versus making the decision. This information is useful for better understanding how the biosecurity system operates, particularly for researchers aiming to develop tools for more effective decision-making.
Table 1 lists 36 decision types, spanning pre-border, at border, post-border and pest management activities. Details on each decision type appear on subsequent pages.
