Fruit import bans extended
3 Dec 2004

The federal government said it would continue to temporarily prohibit the import of some fruit produce on quarantine grounds. The government extended bans on the import of apples from New Zealand; bananas from the Philippines; citrus from Florida; grapes from Chile and limes from New Caledonia. The restrictions are still subject to review, with five “import risk assessments” subject to public comment for another two months, after which the prohibited fruit may be allowed into Australia. Financial Review, 03/12/04
