[QUOTE="frenchie, post: 137799, member: 451"] Japan Plans to Base Beef Inspectors in Canada and U.S. meatingplace.com The Daily Yomiuri, a Tokyo daily newspaper, reports that both the Health, Labor and Welfare Ministry and the Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Ministry plan to base permanent meat inspectors in the United States and Canada if and when the market reopens to beef from the two countries. The Health Ministry will send two inspectors, one for each country, beginning early next year. They will travel to approved meat processors on a regular basis to ensure that only cattle 20 months of age or younger are slaughtered and that all specified risk materials are removed and handled appropriately. There are about 40 approved processors in the United States alone. The Agriculture Ministry is considering sending specialists in livestock epidemic prevention. The scientific panel that is expected to deliver a final approval of beef imports from the United States and Canada to the independent Food Safety Committee today, also is expected to recommend that all imported meat be closely watched and that imports be suspended immediately if any part of the agreed upon agreement is violated.
