Biosecurity Act 1993

Pest management - Regional pathway management plans

100A: Powers in Part 6

You could also call this:

"What powers can be used to manage regional pathways?"

When a regional pathway management plan is made, it must use only the powers listed in Part 6 that the plan says can be used. You can think of a plan like a set of instructions that says how to manage a region's pathways. The management agency in charge of the plan can only use the powers in Part 6 if the plan allows them to.

If someone is authorised to help with the plan, they can use the powers in Part 6 to implement the plan, but only if they are appointed to work on that plan. The authorised person must also be given the power by Part 6 and the plan must say they can use that power. This helps make sure that everyone involved in the plan is working together and using the right powers to get the job done.
