Despite the general requirement that a risk management programme is tailored to the individual business concerned, section 12(3A) of the Animal Products Act 1999 (“the Act”) allows for a risk management programme for a particular business, or part of a business, to be based on a template, a model, or a code of practice, if in the view of the Director-General the template, model or code of practice is valid and appropriate for businesses of that kind.

This risk management programme (RMP) template applies to the milk harvesting and storage activities at farm dairies.
