據(jù)外媒報(bào)道，近日恒天然污染事件引發(fā)極大恐慌，新西蘭反對(duì)黨呼吁成立獨(dú)立的食品安全機(jī)構(gòu)。
由于不能確定進(jìn)口產(chǎn)品的質(zhì)量，俄羅斯、哈薩克斯坦和白俄羅斯對(duì)新西蘭乳制品發(fā)布了禁令。
新西蘭第一產(chǎn)業(yè)部是去年成立的一個(gè)統(tǒng)一的部門，用于支持整個(gè)主產(chǎn)業(yè)的發(fā)展。新西蘭反對(duì)黨指出，對(duì)于新西蘭這樣一個(gè)主要依靠食品出口的國(guó)家，應(yīng)當(dāng)更能夠依照國(guó)際慣例，成立單獨(dú)的、獨(dú)立的食品安全機(jī)構(gòu)。
部分原文報(bào)道如下：
New Zealand's main opposition party has called for a standalone food safety agency in the wake of international bans on New Zealand dairy produce due to recent contamination scares.
Damien O'Connor, Labour's food safety spokesperson, said that the country needed to have an independent food safety agency or authority as is the case in many other countries, and that the current mechanism was failing.
"Bans by Russia, Kazakhstan and Belarus, because they can't be assured of the quality of our goods, show the Ministry for Primary Industries does not have systems in place to support our trade representatives who are dealing with food safety issues," he said.
