10 Seafood receipt Two submissions queried the necessity of this clause as it was felt that if the standard only applies to seafood primary production, then there is no (second) business that will receive the seafood products. It was recommended that the clause be deleted.
The definition of primary production of seafood does allow for a range of activities, which may or may not take place on the same premises or by the same company. Therefore, primary production and processing seafood businesses may be involved in the receipt of seafood and the clause will be required.
The Clause has been amended in line with the Editorial Note to Clauses 6 and 7 to remove reference to keeping seafood at 60ºC. In addition, a further part (4) has been added to cover the receipt of live seafood that has been transported.
