Outline
• The Convention (IPPC)
• Scope
• Key Principles
• PRA Standards
What is the IPPC?
• Multilateral treaty for international cooperation in plant protection– Nearly 160 countries– From Albania to Zambia
• A standard setting organization
Aim of the IPPC
• Prevent introduction & spread of pests
• Promote fair & safe trade
• Protect plant life
Scope of the IPPC
• IPPC covers wide range of plants & protects them from a wide range of pests
– plants: cultivated plants and wild flora
– plant pests: invertebrates, diseases and weeds
– harm: includes direct & indirect effects
Scope of the IPPC
• Extends to items capable of harbouring or spreading pests, such as: – storage places
– conveyances
• Includes intentional introductions of organisms, such as:– biological control organisms
– research, industrial or other organisms
• Countries have the right to use phytosanitary measures
• Measures should be:– only applied when necessary
– technically justified
– no more restrictive than necessary to address risk
– non-discriminatory
– transparent
Key principles
Obligations
• National Plant Protection Organization (NPPO)
• Regulate imports
• Publish phytosanitary requirements
• Conduct surveillance, treatments and certify exports
• Share information on pests and regulations
• Notify trading partners of non-compliance

All types of plants

Other pathways
Plant protection & safe trade
World Trade Organization (WTO)
• Responsible for establishing rules of trade between nations
• IPPC is the recognized international standard setting body for plant health under the WTO-SPS
WTO - SPS AgreementPhytosanitary measures should be:
– consistent with international standards – justified by scientific principles and
evidence– harmonized to the extent possible– transparent / notified / non-
discriminatory– only as restrictive as necessary to meet
the appropriate level of protection
IPPC
The IPPC makes provision for trade in a plant protection agreement...
SPS
…the SPS makes complementary provisions for plant protection in a
trade agreement
International regulatory framework
Other international agreements
• Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD)– Protecting biodiversity– Invasive alien species– Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety
• Genetically modified organisms

Secretariat
• Governing body for the IPPC, works by consensus
• Reviews global plant protection needs and sets the annual work programme
• Develops and adopts International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures (ISPMs)
• Promotes technical assistance and information exchange
Commission on Phytosanitary Measures (CPM)
International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures (ISPMs)
ISPMs:• provide guidance to member countries
in implementing national programs and fulfilling requirements of the IPPC
• may be very general (e.g., Glossary, Principles etc.), or highly specific (e.g., Pest status, Solid wood packaging etc.)
No. 6 – surveillanceNo. 17 – pest reporting
No. 23 - inspection

No. 1 – principlesNo. 5 – glossary of terms
No. 19 – pest lists
PRA
• Key to adhering to IPPC principles is application of pest risk analysis as a decision-making process
• Impacts on all aspects of phytosanitary programs: import, domestic programs, exports
• Guidance provided in ISPMs
PRA-specific ISPMs
• ISPM No. 2 – Framework for pest risk analysis, revision for approval
by CPM in March 2007
• ISPM No. 3 – Guidelines for the export, shipment, import and
release of biological control agents and other beneficial organisms, 2005
• ISPM No. 11 – Pest risk analysis for quarantine pests including
analysis of environmental risks and living modified organisms, 2004
• ISPM No. 21– Pest risk analysis for regulated non-quarantine pests
PRA-specific ISPMs
• ISPM No. 2 – Framework for pest risk analysis (2007)
• ISPM No. 3 – Guidelines for the export, shipment, import and
release of biological control agents and other beneficial organisms, 2005
• ISPM No. 11 – Pest risk analysis for quarantine pests including
analysis of environmental risks and living modified organisms, (2004)
• ISPM No. 21– Pest risk analysis for regulated non-quarantine pests
IPPC
• IPPC is global• Aim is to protect plants, prevent spread
of pests, promote trade• Measures applied only when necessary,
technically justified, no more restrictive than necessary, non-discriminatory, transparent
• PRA supports principles of IPPC• ISPMs provide guidance
