It is an admission that they are very slowly identifying and mitigating their failures. Made me laugh when they said eve though wildlife was free of bTb that they would declare an area free even if some farmed livestock in the area were known to have bTb.
IMO the priority should always have been targeting reliable bTb testing and uncompromising rigid movement controls and records , both these actions making the priority target farmed cattle rather than possum. In short, possum was the victim not the perpetrator it hss been made out to be and so the program has been upside down from the getgo unfortunately. They just won't admit it![]()
