Meat plant fights FSA
A meat processing plant in Northern Ireland has gone to court to overturn a Food Standards Agency (FSA) action banning it from supplying meat products. Despite objections from the FSA, Eurostock Foods Newry, which processes cow's head meat, obtained an interim relief from the High Court in Belfast permitting it to continue supplying products, subject to compliance with technical controls.
The ruling, obtained last month, overturned enforcement action by the FSA in November to prevent the company supplying these products. It will be effective until the hearing of a Judicial Review scheduled for February 7 or until a further order of the court.
Eurostock has been harvesting cheek meat for 20 years or more.
Are retailers and caterers taking longer to pay invoices now than a year ago?
