Representatives from the UK meat and processing industry met with the Food Standards Agency (FSA) and Food Standards Scotland (FSS) earlier this week to discuss concerns over recent cases of non-compliance.
Critics have slammed a new beef industry code of conduct, designed to make the supply chain more transparent, describing it as ineffective and nothing more than “gesture politics”.
Pressure is mounting on the government to do more to fight the UK’s corner in the EU in getting a reversal of the European Commission’s (EC’s) decision to impose a moratorium on desinewed meat (DSM).
