In that respect, what role do the state and territory food enforcement processes have? Are they completely unengaged in that process? I am just trying to ascertain the normal enforcement processes around food as compliance with the Food Standards Code is delivered by state and territory agencies. Is palm oil going to be completely separate and the ACCC would have a compliance role for palm oil alone?
