Authorities 'vague' about horse flu border security changes

Victorian authorities will not say to what extent horse flu checkpoints along the New South Wales border are being scaled back.
Victoria's chief vet, Dr Hugh Miller, says some monitoring shifts are being cancelled, as the threat from equine flu subsides.

But he will not say at which crossings security is being relaxed, in case people attempt to take advantage of the new arrangements.
"It's part of a deterrent set of arrangements. Just like the police are vague about when and where they will have various patrols or booze buses or whatever, we're taking the opportunity to be deliberately vague scaling back the border operations," he said.
