Disposal of commodities

The Quarantine Department disposes of confiscated commodities through the application of the “Procedure for the Disposal of Confiscated Commodities – PRO/QRT/10/03(01)”.  This allows for commodities with negligible risk to be distributed to Non-governmental organizations with humanitarian focus; and the commodities that can pose higher risks to be destroyed by incineration or burial and open-air burning as a last alternative.
