RICHARD AMERY, M.P., Minister for for Agriculture Agriculture Explanatory note The object of this Regulation is to classify the Chinese softshell-turtle as a category 2 animal for the purposes of the Non-Indigenous Animals Act 1987. At present the Chinese softshell-turtle falls within category 1b, which consists of any non- indigenous species of animal that is not otherwise classified under the Non- Indigenous Animals Regulation 1997. Category 1b animals are higher risk category animals and are generally not permitted to be brought into Australia or to be kept in Australia. Category 2 animals are animals of high pest potential or significant conservation value. They are still considered to be higher risk category animals for the purposes of the Act, and it is an offence to import them into, or keep them, in New South Wales. However, certain exceptions apply to category 2 animals. For instance, as a result of the Chinese softshell-turtle being classified as a category 2 animal by this Regulation, a person who holds an authority that enables the person to exhibit a Chinese softshell-turtle under the Exhibited Animals Protection Act 1986 will be able to import and exhibit the animal. This Regulation is made under the Non-Indigenous Animals Act 1987, including section 6 (d) and section 29 (the general regulation-making power). r01-041-p01.840 Page 1 NEW SOUTH WALES GOVERNMENT GAZETTE No. 73 P:\re\01\r01-041-p01.840 24/4/01, 2:14p 2050 LEGISLATION 27 April 2001 Clause 1 Non-Indigenous Animals Amendment (Category 2 Animals) Regulation 2001 Non-Indigenous Animals Amendment (Category 2 Animals) Regulation 2001 1 Name of Regulation This Regulation is the Non-Indigenous Animals Amendment (Category 2 Animals) Regulation 2001. 2 Amendment of Non-Indigenous Animals Regulation 1997 The Non-Indigenous Animals Regulation 1997 is amended as set out in Schedule 1. 3Notes The explanatory note does not form part of this Regulation.
