Part 6Homekill and recreational catch
71Requirements for dual operator butchers
A retail butcher may carry out, at the same premises or place, both regulated animal product operations or trade and homekill or recreational catch operations, but only subject to the following conditions:
- the retail butcher must be listed as a homekill or recreational catch service provider:
- no animal that is homekill or recreational catch may be killed on or at any premises or place where regulated animal product is processed or traded:
- regulated animal product must be processed and stored separately from any homekill or recreational catch animal material or product:
- the dual operator butcher must operate under a risk management programme in respect of all regulated animal products at the premises or place (and accordingly is deemed to have made an election under section 32 in respect of those animal products):
- in addition to any other matters required under Part 2, the risk management programme of the dual operator butcher must identify and specify the following matters:
- the unique risk factors inherent in having homekill or recreational catch processed in a place or premises where regulated animal products are also processed or traded:
- the measures to be taken to ensure that homekill and recreational catch products are not confused with regulated animal products, and do not enter the dual operator's normal retail butcher trade or other trade in regulated animal products for human or animal consumption:
- the measures to be taken to ensure that no product from the business, whether homekill, recreational catch, or regulated animal product for human or animal consumption, is exported, whether by the service provider or any other person (otherwise than as specifically provided by section 50 in the case of the person whose homekill or recreational catch it was).
- the unique risk factors inherent in having homekill or recreational catch processed in a place or premises where regulated animal products are also processed or traded:
For the avoidance of doubt, homekill or recreational catch product may not be treated as regulated animal product merely because it is processed at any premises or place subject to a risk management programme as required by subsection (1)(c) and (d).
For the avoidance of doubt, subsection (1)(c) does not prevent a person from operating under the Food Act regime in respect of food that is not animal product.
