Order

1 Title

This order is the Animal Products (Exemptions and Inclusions) Amendment Order 2017.

This order comes into force on 1 July 2017.

This order amends the Animal Products (Exemptions and Inclusions) Order 2000 (the principal order).

Explanatory note

This note is not part of the order, but is intended to indicate its general effect.

This order, which comes into force on 1 July 2017, amends the Animal Products (Exemptions and Inclusions) Order 2000 (the principal order).

This order inserts new exemptions into the principal order. Farm dairy operators who produce and process RCS raw milk are exempted from the requirement to carry out those activities under a risk management programme under the Animal Products Act 1999. RCS raw milk is raw milk that is subject to a regulated control scheme under the Raw Milk for Sale to Consumers Regulations 2015. Persons who store or transport that milk on behalf of farm dairy operators (depot operators and transport operators) are exempted from carrying out those activities under a risk management programme.

This order amends the exemptions in clauses 7A, 7B, and 10 of the principal order. The effect of the amendments is that the activities to which each exemption applies must be carried out under a risk-based measure under the Food Act 2014. The purpose of the amendments is to avoid an unintended effect of section 349(1)(c) and (2) of the Food Act 2014. That section would exempt certain activities (already exempted under the Animal Products Act 1999) from the requirement to operate under a risk-based measure under the Food Act 2014.

Issued under the authority of the Legislation Act 2019.

Date of notification in Gazette: 18 May 2017.
