and NI. To do this we plan and carryout audit programmes in each country. The official controls audited cover a diverse range of activities from primary production on farms, eggs, dairy, slaughterhouses, cutting plants, animal feed, shellfish and fishery products, through to the retail sector such as supermarkets, butchers, restaurants. The official controls system is operated by food and feed enforcement officers from competent authorities including, local authority, port health authority, the FSA itself, either directly or through contracts or service level agreements with other organisations such as the Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs (DAERA) in Northern Ireland.
