Download Evaluation of template or model food control plan: BIANZ

Section 40 of the Food Act 2014 provides that MPI’s chief executive can approve a template or model food control plan developed outside of MPI.
This allows food businesses or commercial operations to:
- develop a food control plan and have it approved so that each business using the plan does not need to submit their plan for individual evaluation;
- make adjustments to the MPI templates to include multi-site or multi-business specific procedures or practices, or to reflect common language/terminology used in the business and have those changes approved;
- be able to demonstrate that they meet the requirements of the Food Act 2014 when using commercial or private food safety and suitability programmes.
