These Regulations, made under the Dairy Industry Act, 2006, apply to traceability and recall of dairy produce and aim at enhancing consumer protection and safety of dairy produce; at improving access to information on marketed dairy produce and at providing mechanism for tracing and recall of dairy produce.
The Regulations define relevant terms, including: recall, that is the process of withdrawing dairy produce from the supply chain in case it poses or it is likely to pose substantial health risk to consumers or does not meet the requirements of the relevant standards; traceability, that is the ability to trace, follow and identify uniquely a dairy produce through all stages of production, collection, processing, storage and distribution by means of verifiable documentation.
Matters covered by the Regulations concern: requirements for traceability; identification of suppliers and customers; mandatory information on consignments; labelling of dairy produce; authority responsible to recall dairy produce and requirements to recall; criminal offences.
