The Anti-Vivisection Union of South Australia supports the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Amendment (Prohibition of Live Imports of Primates for Research) Bill 2015.

The integrity of Australian research is currently severely compromised, lacking a legal prohibition on primate imports.

Undercover investigations into the capture methods, holding facilities and dodgy documentation of exporting countries have exposed a cruel and corrupt scenario in which monkeys suffer terribly.
Currently there are only two airlines that transport monkeys destined for research.

The commitment of so many airlines globally, to not facilitate primate importation that inflicts cramped caging, lack of water or food and rough handling on already traumatised animals is a clear indication of a majority ruling against this cruel process.

Australia cannot be a part of this horror and must publicly confirm its rejection of the primate trade.
Primates in research in Australia, both imported and from the breeding facilities, are subjected to highly invasive experiments and procedures followed by death.

These lively, intelligent animals with their own behavioural and environmental needs are forced to endure laboratory conditions and an unnatural life for the alleged benefit of human health and the funding and status of researchers.
Experiments on primates may have the potential to reveal primate reactions to certain drugs, toxins, viruses and procedures but they do not predict or reveal human reactions.

There is no benefit to non-human primates from this research but there is a potential health catastrophe for humans.
In fact a large portion of research reports is spent outlining the species differences, the inadequacies of primate models for human conditions and the need for recalibration of the results of primate experiments, essential for translation to human relevance and for continued research.

The cost to Australia in time and money wasted on animal-based research is enormous and unnecessary.
Technology could fulfil the NHMRC Code requirements of Reduce, Refine and Replace if the Research and Development of non- animal methodologies had been instituted by now, as it has been in Europe and the US.

Primates would not be suffering and dying in the primate trade, in breeding facilities or in laboratories and medical science would be targeting human health conditions through direct and relevant processes.

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this important Bill.

On January 1, 1981 self-employed persons were able to make voluntary contributions to SocialSecurity.

Self-employed persons should remember that registering with Social Security can assist you duringperiods when you are unable to work due to loss of income.
The rate of contribution for self-employed persons is 10% of declared income up to a maximum of $6,500.

In the present economic environment where persons lost their jobs due to the pandemic, new formsof employment emerged creating an increase in self-employed individuals.

Self-employed persons are independent contractors who render services on their own account.

Inother words, they are individuals who work for themselves.
Categories of self-employment include,but are not limited to: doctors, lawyers, accountants, consultants, contractors, farmers, taxi drivers,vendors, fishermen, barbers, hairdressers, web designers, graphic designers, mechanics andlandscapers.

All benefits offered by Social Security are payable to self-employed persons.
