Code for the Operation of the NLIS in Victoria

A Guide for Producers, Saleyard Operators, Scale Operators and Abattoirs

The Victorian NLIS Implementation Advisory Committee has prepared this Code to provide guidance to industry participants on operational aspects of the NLIS in Victoria particularly in relation to transactions involving NLIS identified cattle moving between properties or to abattoirs, or being traded in saleyards. The code reflects industry best practice and many areas are underpinned by the Livestock Disease Control Act 1994.
