Response policy briefs cover EADs that are subject to cost sharing between governments and livestock industries but are not covered by full disease strategies as they have a lower likelihood of entry and any consequences are likely to be less severe. Each brief provides sufficient information (about the nature of the disease, the principles of its control and eradication, and management policies) for authorities to make informed decisions if an Australian outbreak occurs.
