Hi Everyone,

As of the 1st July 2020 the new Australian Honey Bee Industry Biosecurity Code of Practice has come into effect:

[https://honeybee.org.au/programs/code-of-practice-and-national-bee-biosecurity-program/](https://honeybee.org.au/programs/code-of-practice-and-national-bee-biosecurity-program/)

I believe different parts of the code have been made mandatory from state to state but this link is specific to those of you who are also in NSW:

I have just received an updated copy of my beekeeping license in the mail today, of course you’re already registered so you can keep an eye out for yours to arrive too.
