1. The human, physical and financial resources to attract resources and retain professionals with technical and leadership skills;
2. The technical authority and capability to address current and new issues including prevention and control of biological disasters based on scientific principles;
3. The sustained interaction with stakeholders in order to stay on course and carry out relevant joint programmes and services; and
4. The ability to access markets through compliance with existing standards and the implementation of new disciplines such as the harmonisation of standards, equivalence and zoning.
