Ms Amber Heard appeared in the Southport Magistrates Court in Queensland on 18 April 2016 to answer charges alleging the illegal importation of her two dogs into Australia in April 2015.
Ms Heard pleaded guilty to one count of producing a false document (her Incoming Passenger Card).
Ms Heard also offered to publicly state her contrition with the support of her husband – this video is that statement.

It has established itself in Asia and parts of Europe and continues to spread. ASF has no vaccine and kills about 80 per cent of the pigs it infects.
ASF has never occurred in Australia. Its changing distribution means it’s a significant biosecurity threat to our country. An outbreak would be devastating for our pig production and health. It would also damage our trade and the economy.

The video has been driven through the recommendations from the University of Sydney research into managing the risk of rabies incursion in Papua New Guinea and Charles Darwin University research developing culturally appropriate rabies communications messaging.
Australia does NOT have rabies.
It is a serious disease that kills more the 60,000 people a year across the world, and as it spreads across Australia’s northern neighbours, it is becoming more likely it will eventually reach our shores.
Australia does not have rabies, but it could come here any time:
- If the virus were to spread from Indonesia, into West Papua and across into Papua New Guinea, there is a greater risk rabies could enter into Australia through Torres Strait - via yachts carrying rabies-infected dogs from Indonesia, landing on - Australia’s northern coastline and mixing with dingoes and community cats and dogsWebinar 1: Water Efficiency ProgramAustralian Government Department of Agriculture2019-09-20 | Webinar 1: Water Efficiency ProgramCase study 3: John Rapisarda, vineyard operatorAustralian Government Department of Agriculture2019-08-29 | Case study 3: John Rapisarda, vineyard operatorCase study 4: Stuart Pettigrew, citrus growerAustralian Government Department of Agriculture2019-08-29 | Case study 4: Stuart Pettigrew, citrus growerpre departure from australia 960x540 746 5 kbpsAustralian Government Department of Agriculture2019-08-20 | ...Social media 2: Warren Doecke, efficiencies to be gainedAustralian Government Department of Agriculture2019-08-09 | Social media 2: Warren Doecke, efficiencies to be gainedSocial media 1b: Dave Reilly, modernisationAustralian Government Department of Agriculture2019-08-09 | Social media 1b: Dave Reilly, modernisationSocial media 1a: Dave Reilly, increased yieldsAustralian Government Department of Agriculture2019-08-09 | Social media 1a: Dave Reilly, increased yieldsBiosecurity Basics - Biosecurity RoleAustralian Government Department of Agriculture2019-08-06 | The state or territory government is responsive for disease preparedness through biosecurity planning and policy. They will test provided samples and initiate an investigation when necessary. The federal government will coordinate a response if the incursion occurs in more than one state or territory.
Vigilance is paramount. Asian green mussels were discovered on an illegal fishing vessel brought into Cairns Harbour. Their spread to prevent by early detection and eradication.
During a disease response a zone will be defined to minimize the risk of people unknowingly spreading the incursion. If eradication is feasible a program may commence to utterly destroy and remove all traces of the incursion. If eradication fails, the invasive organism will be contained, to prevent of slow the spread.Biosecurity Basics - Harvest and Post HarvestAustralian Government Department of Agriculture2019-08-06 | Professional fishers enter our marine ecosystem more frequently than any other group in our community.

They’ve arrived in many shapes and forms, but one thing has remained consistent. Their destruction of our natural environment and the businesses that rely upon it.
The federal government is responsible for managing the risk of disease entering into Australia through contaminated food products. However, if the mechanisms at the border fail, the responsibility for detection falls upon the broader community.
