This Order partly amends Order on Food Licensing, in particular provisions related to the licensing and registration of food processing activities – in order to prevent transmissible harmful organisms in food. Registered retail companies in adherence to article 7, section 2 may receive and process meat of domestic ungulates, poultry, farmed and wild game, fish and crustaceans for private use (art. 13). Products may only be returned to end consumers who submitted them. The company must have detailed documentation on the amount of the received products and should include duly explanatory notification thereof (section 4, point 4).
