International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) consulting on international standards for phytosanitary measures

The International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) is consulting on international standards for phytosanitary measures (ISPMs) and seeks feedback from Canadian stakeholders.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) is Canada’s representative to the IPPC. The IPPC is an international treaty that established a common approach to preventing the introduction and spread of plant pests. The CFIA is responsible for submitting comments to the IPPC on behalf of Canadians.

2015 consultation is now open on the Canadian Food Inspection Agency website.
