An opening meeting was held on September 06, 2007, in Zagreb, Croatia with the Central Competent Authority (CCA). At this meeting, the auditor confirmed the objective and scope of the audit, the auditor's itinerary, and requested additional information needed to complete the audit of Croatia's meat inspection system. The auditor was accompanied during the entire audit by representatives from the CCA, the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management (MAFVM), and/or representatives from the county and local inspection offices. This audit was a routine audit. The objective of the audit was to evaluate the performance of the CCA with respect to controls over the slaughter and processing establishments certified by the CCA as eligible to export meat products to the United States. In pursuit of the objective, the following sites were visited: the headquarters of the CCA, one county inspection office, one establishment level inspection office, one laboratory performing analytical testing on United States-destined product, and one meat processing only establishment.
