429: New food safety officers

You could also call this:

"Food safety officers can work with old food businesses under old rules"

Illustration for Food Act 2014

If you are a food safety officer appointed under the Food Act 2014, you can do your job and make decisions about a food business that was already operating before the new rules started. You can do this as long as the food business keeps operating under the old rules. This means you can perform your functions and duties, and exercise your powers, in relation to this food business.
