All LPA accredited producers – from large scale operators to hobby farmers – may be audited. Approximately 2500 producers are selected each year at random from the list of producers who have not yet been audited. Annually, there are 1000 audits selected based on LPA risks and non-compliance areas such as NLIS transfers not being completed, biosecurity risk issues and LPA NVD non-compliance.  For producers accredited under a Voluntary Module audit frequencies may differ. 

You can provide buyers with details of any high-risk animals in the consignment, or provide a list of the NLIS tag numbers of each animal in the consignment prior to sale so that they can check if there are any statuses attached to them. You will also provide buyers with the assurances they require by accurately completing the LPA NVD and declaring any livestock that may pose a food safety or biosecurity risk.
