Call for Submissions—Matters at Full Assessment

The authority has made preliminary assessments, accepted the following applications for further consideration and will now make full assessments of them. You are invited to present written submissions to the authority, including the potential regulatory impact on consumers, industry and government, by Wednesday 5 July 2000:

• Maximum Residue Limits (A409)—An application from the National Registration Authority to amend Australian Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) for a number of agricultural chemicals as currently prescribed in the Australian Food Standards Code.

Food sold in New Zealand which is either domestically produced or imported (other than from Australia) must comply with the MRL provisions of the New Zealand Food Standard 1999 and the New Zealand Food Regulations 1984. Food imported from Australia must comply with either the New Zealand MRLs or the Australian MRLs.

• Pasteurisation of Orange Juice (A411)—An application from the South Australian Department of Human Services to require all orange juice, other than freshly squeezed orange juice for immediate consumption on the same premises, to either undergo a pasteurisation process that would kill pathogenic bacteria, or be labelled to ensure consumers are informed of the risks associated with the consumption of unpasteurised orange juice.

Matters Before Council

The authority has made recommendations to the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Council that the following variations be adopted into the Food Standards Code:

• Folate Health Claims (P218)—A proposal to amend the Food Standards Code to list additional products in the table to subclause (e) of Standard A1 (19) and the folate/NTD health claims register.
