KUWAIT bans local milk - (Kuwait Times)
April 30, 2008 – 10:51 pmhttp://www.kuwaittimes.net/read_news.php?newsid=MTA2OTE4NjM0OA==
The Municipality yesterday banned the sale of unpacked fluid milk in the country. The move came following an outbreak of cow tuberculosis. Coops have already begun pulling local milk and beef products from shelves over fears of infection.
The ban was decided during a meeting of the Food Safety Committee under the Municipality, which focused on cow TB, Mohamed Al-Etebi, chairman of the committee said. The committee asked the Public Authority for Agriculture Affairs and Fish Resources (PAAAFR) to compile a detailed report on necessary measures for preventing cow tuberculosis and a potential ban on infected cow farms, he said.
