The Parliamentary Friends of Biosecurity was launched on 18 October 2023 at Parliament House, Canberra and the detector dogs were the stars of the show showing off their odour-sensing talents!
The Decade of Biosecurity project partners were thrilled to see this group commence after proposing its formation earlier this year and many of the project partners were present at the event. Here they are with the co-chairs, Senator Linda White and Mr Andrew Willcox MP, and detector dog Delta.

This group will act as an important platform to elevate biosecurity issues and highlight the importance of a strong and well- resourced biosecurity system.
