Abstract

Generally, only limited resources are available for quarantine inspection, compliance verification and disease surveillance. How best to allocate a fixed amount of resources depends on how we define 'best'. This paper considers a number of definitions that cover a range of likely operational activities and derives sampling and testing strategies that take advantage of any variation in risk within the population of interest to increase their efficiency.
