• Exporting dairy product that failed to meet relevant animal product standards
• Failing to notify its verifier of significant concerns that dairy product had not been processed in accordance with its Risk Management Programme
• Failing to notify the Director General as soon as possible that exported dairy product was not fit for intended purpose.
MPI cannot make further comment as the matter is before the courts.
