Industry agreed standard 4 procurement of animals for food

This industry standard places an emphasis on identifying conditions and regulatory controls relating to the source and supply of animals, maintaining that source information and regulatory control with the supply, collating that information with an inspection of the animals by a Inspector to determine their fitness for processing into food.

It should be noted, however, that the current provision to allow the hunting of animals in the wild for human and animal consumption is under review. The requirements in this Industry Standard relating to hunting and hunters may be subject to change pending the outcome of that review.
