If the Appeal Tribunal is satisfied that the person who made the biosecurity undertaking has contravened the undertaking, the Appeal Tribunal may make one or more of the following orders:an order directing the person to comply with the undertaking; an order discharging or varying the undertaking; any other order that the Appeal Tribunal considers appropriate in the circumstances, including orders directing the person to pay to the Secretary – the costs of the proceedings; and the reasonable costs of the Secretary in monitoring compliance with the biosecurity undertaking in the future.
The making of an order under this section does not affect the liability of a person for any penalty for an offence for the contravention of the biosecurity undertaking to which the order relates.
