Regional Pest Management Strategy

The Regional Pest Management Strategy provides for the efficient and effective assessment, management and/or eradication of pest plants and animals in the Gisborne district by:

• minimising the risk of the introduction or dispersal of new pest species;
• controlling the dispersal of any established pests;
• controlling pest densities and/or range (including eradication);
• minimising the adverse effects of pests and pest management on the environment;
• facilitating the integration of regional pest management with adjoining regional strategies and national controls.
