We are developing guidance material to promote the understanding and consistent application of the ASEL rejection criteria.
The rejection criteria guidebooks aim to:
- clearly explain the ASEL rejection criteria and provide clarification and technical information to government and non-government users to promote the consistent application of rejection criteria
- improve welfare outcomes for export livestock through better management prior to loading
- provide clear guidance, including media, on livestock that aren’t suitable for export or to enter the export supply chain.
This work is the first of a series of collaborative projects to promote the consistent application of the ASEL.
We encourage users of the ASEL to provide feedback and additional media (photographs and video) to improve the guidebooks. Please email feedback and media (including description) to aselreview@awe.gov.au. The guidebooks will be periodically updated, therefore we recommend you access the document via the weblink rather than download and save your own copy.
