OSPRI | <strong>ANNUAL</strong> <strong>REPORT</strong> <strong>2014</strong>/<strong>2015</strong><br />
OSPRI’s second year has seen<br />
positive developments in both<br />
NAIT and TBfree<br />
For NAIT, industry uptake has increased and a lot has been learnt from<br />
NAIT’s first three years. Consistent with stakeholder feedback, we<br />
focused on improving the usability of NAIT for farmers and others in<br />
the supply chain, and on better communicating NAIT’s benefits.<br />
For TBfree, we’re well ahead of schedule for proving eradication of<br />
TB from New Zealand is possible, complemented by a record low<br />
number of infected herds. A collaborative approach to reviewing the<br />
TB Plan was a major focus (a new plan will apply from 1 July 2016).<br />
We also contributed to the publication of an important TB research<br />
series and won two national IT awards for our livestock disease<br />
management system.<br />
Across our activities, our engagement with the Stakeholders’ Council<br />
improved; we worked extensively with advisory committees and other<br />
organisations; and also made great progress with our health and<br />
safety programme.<br />
OSPRI as an organisation is fundamentally built on collaboration.<br />
We work successfully across industries and government to generate<br />
better outcomes for New Zealand’s primary sector.<br />
