If the ABF detects unlawfully imported engineered stone benchtops, panels or slabs at the border, they may provide the importer with the opportunity to have the goods re-exported or destroyed at cost to the importer.
The ABF may also:
- seize the goods and forfeit them to the Crown
- investigate the supplier
- apply sanctions against the importer
- refer the case to state and territory WHS regulators or Comcare.
