Amendment 2: Code of Practice: Processing of Bee Products Part 2: Good Manufacturing Practice

Date: 6 June 2006

1 Background

1.1 This section provides details of legislative requirements for bee products processing, industry agreed procedures which if followed ensure compliance with legislative requirements and advice.

1.2 It has been necessary to issue this amendment because amendment 1 had a corruption in it that prevented it converting to HTML. Unfortunately the version of Amendment 1 that was previously posted on the web site was the draft version handed out at the workshops in March 2006. This was discovered only after it was issued.

1.3 Please note that the draft sections handed out at workshops in March 2006 and previously issued as amendment 1 have different numbering from this amendment. Amendment 2 reverts to the same section numbering as the original COP. Please ensure the COP document list in your copy of the RMP to refer to the correct sections of this amendment. This constitutes a minor amendment and does not need to be notified to NZFSA. NZFSA apologises for any inconvenience caused.

2 Amendment Details

2.1 This amendment corrects a number of typographical and numbering errors present in amendment 1 which was issued consequential to the Human Consumption Specifications Amendment relating to bee products and to potable water. All changes from the original July 2005 version have been highlighted for your convenience.

2.2 Appendix 1 to Part 2 (Example Pre-Season Checklist) should remain as the original July 2005 version.

2.3 Please sign off and date the Amendment Record, and file this update letter in the back of your publication for quick reference.

2.4 The follow table summarises the amendments.
