4 Definitions

Note: A number of expressions used in this instrument are defined in section 9 of the Act.

In this instrument:

Act means the Biosecurity Act 2015.

aircraft means an aircraft (as defined by section 9 of the Act) that is subject to biosecurity control.

goods means goods (as defined by section 19 of the Act):

(a) that are subject to biosecurity control; or

Part 2—First point of entry

5 First point of entry—aircraft

Brisbane Airport is a first point of entry for aircraft generally.

6 First point of entry—goods

Brisbane Airport is a first point of entry for all goods.

Note: For other matters relating to whether particular goods may be brought into a particular first point of entry, see sections 173 and 174 of the Act (which deal with prohibited goods and conditionally non‑prohibited goods) and any determinations made under those sections.

Part 3—Biosecurity entry points

7 Biosecurity entry points—aircraft

Note: An aircraft must be brought to a biosecurity entry point at a first point of entry if there is a biosecurity entry point for the aircraft at that first point of entry (see section 238 of the Act). If there are no biosecurity entry points for aircraft at a first point of entry, this requirement does not apply to aircraft landing there. This determination does not designate any area of Brisbane Airport as a biosecurity entry point for aircraft.

8 Biosecurity entry points—goods

Each area of Brisbane Airport specified in column 2 of an item of the following table is designated as a biosecurity entry point for goods, or goods included in a class of goods, specified in column 1 of the item.

Biosecurity entry points—goods

1	Baggage	The following areas: (a) Brisbane Airport International Terminal; (b) Jet Aviation Australia North Terminal (c) Jet Aviation Australia South Terminal
2	Live Horses	The following areas: (a) Bays L1-L6; (b) Bays 69-72; (c) Bay 87

Note 1: If an aircraft has arrived at Brisbane Airport and is carrying goods mentioned in the table that are to be unloaded from the aircraft, those goods must be brought to a biosecurity entry point for those goods as soon as practicable (see section 147 of the Act).

Note 2: This determination does not designate biosecurity entry points for other goods for which Brisbane Airport is a first point of entry, so the requirement in section 147 of the Act does not apply to the unloading of those other goods.
