Hungary poultry ban lifted

The Centre for Food Safety has resumed processing applications for importing poultry and poultry products from Hungary.

Processing was suspended after an avian influenza outbreak on a Hungarian poultry farm in January.

In view of the control measures taken by the country and the fact that there are no other cases reported there, the centre lifted the ban.
