Press Release Saturday 6th December 2008

Recall of Irish Pork and Bacon Product

The Government today announced that laboratory results of animal feed and pork fat samples obtained this afternoonby the Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) confirmed the presence of dioxins.

Consequently, the FSAI is requiring the food industry to recall from the market all Irish pork products produced frompigs slaughtered in Ireland.

This recall involves retailers, the hospitality sector and the Irish pig processing sector. Preliminary evidence indicatesthat the contamination problem is likely to have started in September 2008.

The FSAI is advising consumers, as a precautionary measure, not to consume Irish pork and bacon products at thistime. Investigations involving the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (DAFF) and the FSAI are continuing todetermine the extent of the contamination and to identify the processors and products involved.

The FSAI and DAFF will provide updates as information becomes available.

Note for EditorsDioxins are environmental contaminants that may be formed during combustion processes and may be present inindustrial wastes. It is illegal for dioxins at certain levels to be in food products.
