澳大利亚食品事故将无需向ACCC汇报

    食品伙伴网讯    据外媒报道，近日澳大利亚联邦政府对食品安全法进行了修改，新规定食品制造商和零售商将不再需要向消费者监督机构（ACCC）报告与食品相关的死亡或疾病案例，改由医生负责报告。

    小企业部部长比尔森（Bruce Billson）说，根据各省和行政区公共卫生法律要求，医院和医生报告与食品相关的疾病或死亡案例。

    部分原文报道如下：

    Food-related deaths and disease outbreaks will no longer have to be reported to the consumer watchdog by product makers and sellers under new federal laws, “appalling” public health experts.

    In line with the Abbott government's war on red tape, Small Business Minister Bruce Billson pushed a bill on Wednesday to remove the need for food businesses to alert the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission when they become aware of safety problems.
