Changes to the Regulatory Control of Hormonal Growth Promotants (HGP)
MPI periodically asks for feedback on food safety issues that affect consumers and the food industry. You can make a submission (by post, email or fax) before the closing date. MPI analyses all submissions and considers how they might be included in final decisions.
MAF seeks submissions from all interested parties on the proposed issue of the Animal Products (Regulated Control Scheme – Hormonal Growth Promotants) Notice 2011, to replace the Animal Products (Regulated Control Scheme – Hormonal Growth Promotants) Notice 2009. MAF is interested in comments regarding the proposal to mandate the fitting of a tamperproof Radio Frequency Identification Device (RFID) tag at the time animals are implanted with a Hormonal Growth Promotant (HGP).
