My Department already monitors protein testing at milk processing establishments.
In accordance with the provisions of the partnership agreement, Towards 2016, my Department will extend its monitoring and cross checking of the milk testing regime to include all constituents used for payment purposes and, in consultation with the industry, will ensure transparency in the milk analysis regime.
