Two Australian abattoirs, one from Queensland and another from Victoria, have received permission once again to export their beef products to Malaysia after Malaysian authorities prohibited the companies’ shipments in August last year due to issues regarding Halal certification, ABC reports.
The two processing plants received approval to export on the 5th of April.
In total, six facilities were banned from exporting beef to Malaysia in August last year.
The Australian Meat Industry Council (AMIC) CEO Patrick Hutchinson told ABC that the council is working hard to get approval for export for the remaining delisted abattoirs.
The Federal Department of Agriculture has told ABC Rural in a written statement that 17 Australian meat establishments are currently approved to export to Malaysia.
