Welcome | Livestock Health and Pest Authorities
Livestock Health and Pest Authorities deliver the frontline livestock health service in NSW. Working hand in hand with landholders we are committed to safeguarding agricultural production from the biosecurity risks posed by disease and pests. We also manage travelling stock reserves, stock movement and identification and assist with drought relief.
Following changes to the organisation on 1 January 2009 former RLPB offices across NSW have remained open as offices of the Livestock Health and Pest Authorities.
