FOOD SAFETY

Food Safe Freddie. Community and Public Health no longer provides food safety services within our geographical area, since 1 September 2009.

The New Zealand Food Safety Authority now deals with queries on any of the following:

  • Food Complaints
  • Food Recalls
  • Imported Food
  • Food Safety Programmes
  • Food Labelling

Community and Public Health still deals with food poisoning and food-borne illness.
