Legislation Top
Below is a select list of laws in Austria. As biosecurity is a relatively new and rapidly developing field, many countries have yet to devise or implement laws specific to biosecurity. Since biosecurity has much in common with national security, biosafety, bioterrorism, biological weapons, import / export of dual-use materials, and biodiversity, some countries may develop biosecurity legislation by adapting existing laws within these other areas. Therefore, biosecurity legislation and other laws that could potentially be used as background for biosecurity legislation are included here.
- Austrian Criminal Code 60/1974
- Date: 23 January, 1974
- Comment: This legislation implements the BWC and contains provisions on ‘production and proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.’
