部分原文报道如下:
The Department of Agriculture and Water Resources is implementing interim control measures for the export of fresh strawberries from Australia, in response to reported detections of metal contaminants in the fruit.
From 9am AEST on Wednesday, 19 September 2018, a nil tolerance of metal contaminants in fresh strawberries will be enforced by the department to mitigate the risk of metal contaminants entering the export supply chain.
The new interim measure applies to fresh strawberries for all export markets, including markets that do not require a phytosanitary certificate.
All requests for export permits (RFPs) that include fresh strawberries now require authorisation by the department through EXDOC.
Exporters are responsible for providing evidence to the department, that consignments are free from metal contaminants.
Interim control measures can include evidence of metal screening (metal detectors) at end-point or on-farm metal screening wher product security has been maintained post screening.
Visual inspection alone is not an acceptable measure.
Records are required to be kept by the exporter for auditing purposes for 2 years.
The Manual of importing Country Requirements (MICoR) cases will be updated to reflect these changes. There is no change to existing importing country requirements.
The department's role is to facilitate safe trade of agricultural commodities.
The associated food safety incidents in Australia are being managed by state and territory law enforcement and health authorities.
