Congratulates FSANZ on this the first Primary Production and Processing Standard. Makes the following comments and requests that these be taken into consideration before the Standard is finalised:
Fish Names
States the clearly on the record was the agreement that Fish Names would not be included in the Standard on the proviso that an acceptable method to all parties be found to ensure that Imports do not escape control. Believes at this time, no advice has been given that such a method has been found, and this puts the agreement in jeopardy. Subject to this issue being resolved, it is their clear understanding that compliance and enforcement issues would be addressed. Express their opinion that whilst some states are looking to address these issues, some are showing clear reluctance to do this. Would appreciate FSANZ making it very clear to all jurisdictions that their efforts in this area are very important and not to be diminished.
