LICENSING REQUIREMENTS
Producers in Proposed new licensing changes as from July 1st, 2011, if enacted as presented, will make the keeping of water buffalo in NSW untenable. Submissions to the Department of Primary Industries during the consultation process will endeavour to re-establish a reasonable and workable licensing system. The long term aim is to have Buffalo recognised and reclassified as domestic livestock, as they are in Victoria, Western Australia and the Northern Territory.
