Subject: Official Information request - Companies shut down due to Campylobacter contamination

Dear Ministry for Primary Industries,

In an interview on RNZ's Morning Report this morning, Dr Steve Hathaway mentioned that MPI has the power to shut down companies if they continue to fail to comply with regulatory controls on Campylobacter contamination of chicken: http://www.radionz.co.nz/national/progra...

Could you please tell me when this regulatory power was introduced, and how many times it has been used to shut down companies for this reason since it was introduced?

Sincerely,
Mark Hanna
