The Centre for Food Safety has suspended poultry and poultry product imports from the UK following an avian influenza outbreak at an Oxfordshire farm.

 

The centre is seeking more information from British authorities.

 

Hong Kong imported 4,300 tonnes of frozen poultry products from the UK last year.
