REGISTRATIONS NOW OPEN Registrations are now open watch the MINTRAC website for details. The Australian meat industry s Meat Inspection and Quality Assurance (MI&QA) conference is now in its eighteenth year. The conference is an event built around the interests of plant managers, QA and Meat Inspection personnel as well as regulators in the meat processing industry. The conference targets meat industry personnel who need to understand the quality and food safety environment in which the Australian meat processors operate. The conference aims to highlight existing and over the horizon issues that the industry needs to address such as labelling laws, microbiological testing, inspection regimes and animal welfare standards. Industry support for the conference in recent years has been overwhelming, with registrations of delegates and trade exhibitors still high despite industry downturn. For many managers working within this field the MI&QA Conference is viewed as a must- attend event for the calendar year. The MI&QA Conference provides an important forum to exchange views, keep updated on domestic and international developments and gain greater awareness of the current issues affecting the meat industry. The conference offers delegates a chance to network with other industry associates within and outside the sector. This past year has seen the conclusion of some interesting funded research and development projects into interventions to reduce microbiological contamination and shelf life. This conference will give the industry an opportunity to hear directly from the researchers the outcomes of their projects. The MI&QA Conference is an industry event relevant to anyone who has responsibility for ensuring the quality and food safety of meat products.
