Compliance breaches under egg marketing legislation and failures to carry out salmonella testing are taken very seriously. Where any significant non-compliances are found, contravention notices are served requiring the non-compliance to be corrected by a set deadline. A fixed penalty may be applied where salmonella sampling breaches have occurred.</p> answering member constituency Richmond Park answering member printed Zac Goldsmith question first answered 01/10/2019 17:55:37 answering member 4062 label Biography information for Lord Goldsmith of Richmond Park
