UK - A call has been made to the European Commission to take a lead on achieving a general global agreement for the acceptance of the European-wide visual meat inspection. Changes to the meat inspection system were introduced last year, adopting a more risk based approach and a non-intrusive approach, that only allowed incisions and palpation after a problem had been found. The inspection also calls for specific tests to detect salmonella and trichinella, which have been phased in over the last year. However, while the new inspection methods have become law across Europe some third countries including China are demanding traditional meat inspection tests for exports of pig meat.
英國——英國呼吁向歐盟委員會，帶頭實現(xiàn)一個通用的接受歐盟范圍視覺性肉類檢驗的全球協(xié)議。去年肉類檢測系統(tǒng)的變化，采用更具風(fēng)險的方式和非侵入性的方法，只允許切口和觸診后發(fā)現(xiàn)了問題。檢驗還要求特定的測試來檢測沙門氏菌和旋毛蟲，這在過去一年中已經(jīng)被禁止使用。事實上，新的檢驗方法已成為歐洲一些國家，包括第三世界國家中國，要求傳統(tǒng)的豬肉出口肉類檢驗測試。
