Equine influenza


NSW is now EI-free, thanks to horse owners, industry and the public whose assistance allowed NSW to achieve a monumental victory over this disease.

A Travelling Horse Statement is no longer required to move horses within NSW and interstate but compulsory registrations of events will remain indefinitely.
