Summary

This project has involved consideration of the current and likely future regulatory environments, external drivers, and current industry practices in relation to collection and management of data on animalhealth and welfare outcomes across the livestock export supply chain. It is recommended that the livestock export industry consider the development of a web-based, industry-owned, data management system to provide animal identification and traceability capability and associated functions limited to regulatory compliance and industry QA requirements. ​
