2nd Call for Submissions for Proposal P1022 - Primary Production & Processing Requirements for Raw Milk Products
Distribution date: 18 July 2014 | Final date for Comment: 29 August 2014
Proposal P1022 has been prepared to assess additional requirements for milk production, transport and processing for the safe production of raw milk products, where it can be demonstrated that the intrinsic physico-chemical characteristics of the raw milk product do not support the growth of pathogens, and there is no net increase in pathogen levels during processing. FSANZ is consulting on draft variations to Standards 4.2.4 - Primary Production and Processing Standard for Dairy Products, 4.2.4A - Primary Production and Processing Standard for Specific Cheeses and 1.6.1- Microbiological Limits. All proposals to change the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code, must be assessed in the context of the following objectives: (a) the protection of public health and safety; (b) the provision of adequate information relating to food to enable consumers to make informed choices; and (c) the prevention of misleading or deceptive conduct.
Products Covered: Raw milk products sold in Australia (both imported and domestically produced) where it can be demonstrated: - that the intrinsic physico-chemical characteristics of the raw milk product do not support the growth of pathogens, and - there is no net increase in pathogen levels during processing. Raw milk products are dairy products made with raw milk, but do not include milk.
