LACA chair Anne Bull responds to FSA meat advice

11 Feb 2013

LACA chair Anne Bull welcomes the interim advice to public sector caterers from the Food Standards Agency (FSA) about the ongoing concerns over the horse meat issue.

She said: "The FSA are underlining what is already good catering practice and should be in place regardless of recent revelations.

"Education caterers will continue to work with procurement and public health colleagues in local authorities to ensure that the quality of food served in schools remains an absolute priority.

"Local authority maintained schools are subject to robust nutritional standards which provide a safety net for both caterers, and children and young people in schools."
