The Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) regularly releases an update about what the Ministry and partners like KVH are doing together to keep New Zealand’s borders secure from pests and diseases. You can subscribe to ‘The Border Space’ newsletter here to receive future issues. Regular features include updates on surveillance and detection of unwanted pests, information about new biosecurity rules, initiatives being developed and trialled, and border activity statistics. The latest issue also includes a profile on KVH and port company-led activities at the Port of Tauranga to create a model of biosecurity operational excellence. We’re doing a lot of work in this area with the wider Port community (transport and logistics personnel and transitional facility staff for example), alongside our colleagues at the Port and MPI, to raise awareness and understanding of biosecurity risk at the frontline.
