Title Final report for the review of biosecurity import requirements for fresh dragon fruit from Viet Nam "Notification of adoption, publication or entry into force of regulation"
Summary

The  Australian  Government  Department  of  Agriculture  and  Water  Resources  has  completed  this risk  analysis  in  response  to  the  market  access  request  for  dragon  fruit  from  Viet  Nam  into Australia.  The  final  report  recommends  that  the  importation  of  dragon  fruit  into  Australia  from Viet Nam  meets  Australia's  biosecurity  requirements  subject  to  a  range  of  risk  management measures  for  fruit  flies  (three  species)  and  mealybugs  (four  species).  One  pest  requiring  risk management, the Pacific mealybug, has been identified as a regional quarantine pest for Western Australia.
The  final  report  recommends  a  range  of  risk  management  measures,  combined  with  operational systems to reduce the risks posed by the seven quarantine pests to achieve the appropriate leve lof  protection  for  Australia.  These  measures  are  consistent  with  Australia's  existing  policy  and include:
  area freedom or vapour heat treatment for fruit flies
  consignment  freedom  verified  by  visual  inspection  and,  if  detected,  remedial  action  for mealybugs.
The completed final report is available in English at:

The draft report for this risk analysis was published on the Australian Government Department of Agriculture  and  Water  Resources  website  on  13  September  2016  for  a  60  day  stakeholder consultation  period  and  was  published  as  an  SPS  notification  with  reference  number G/SPS/N/AUS/399.
