Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry
The Terrestrial Working Group (TVWG) will provide the Environment and Invasives Committee (EIC) with technical and policy advice on the prevention, incursion response and management of terrestrial vertebrate pest animals, under the framework of the Australian Pest Animal Strategy (APAS). Decisions will be made by consensus (not necessarily unanimous, but without major objection). If consensus cannot be reached, then the matter will be progressed to EIC with advice on the matters of contention. Discussions and decisions of the TVWG are to be treated as government in-confidence, in alignment with the operating guidelines of EIC.
