Does the plant health inspection programme relate only to agricultural and commercial plants? What does the programme entail? What measures and sanctions will be put in place under that programme? I note that the programme will be implemented this year for the first time, although it has been planned for a number of years. What will the inspection programme look like? What level of inspections can be expected?
