DoTaRS Audits - International Cargo Security

Dear {Firstname},

As part of the Regulated Air Cargo Agents (RACA) Program, the DoTaRS are required to conduct regular audits of all participants and due to a number of recent factors, including our heightened state of security alert, the Government have allocated more resources to this area.

Feedback from members, most recently in Sydney, would indicate that this is becoming more evident and we are therefore issuing this timely reminder to ensure that your RACA compliance measures are up to date, before you are audited !

One recurring issue that has been highlighted is that some companies have not advised DoTaRS of ALL sites where the member conducts Aircargo business. If you need to add additional sites, please contact: Pierre or Gail at the Canberra office of DoTaRS Cargo security office on 02 6274 7041

Please check your records and ensure everyone concerned is informed.

Thanks and regards ,
