Food Standards Scotland and the Food Standards Agency update on the UKwide review into meat cutting plants and cold stores

摘要

Phase One of the UK-wide review into meat cutting plants and cold stores launched by Food Standards Scotland (FSS) and the Food Standards Agency (FSA) in March is now complete. Phase One includes: 1. an analysis of the current state of this part of the industry 2. a comparison of arrangements in place across the four countries involved (Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and England) 3. identification of potential emerging areas for improvement. Key findings from this phase form part of an update on options for improvement which will be provided to both FSS and the FSA Boards, and will be discussed at the FSS’s next public Board meeting in August.
