The state secretary explained that the focus of the inspection is the inspection of the hygienic condition of the restaurants and the traceability of the raw materials. Special attention is paid to the storage of raw materials that require cooling according to the regulations.

During the summer seasonal inspections, food safety inspectors have so far checked 32 beach bars around Lake Balaton. The specialists monitored the hygienic conditions of the establishments, the safety and traceability of the food prepared and distributed.

Dr. Márton Nobilis pointed out that the minor irregularities previously discovered by the experts were typically experienced in connection with the daily documentation management, as well as the lack of documentation proving the use of disinfectant dishwashing detergents and protection against pests. In two cases, it was only necessary to take action due to non-compliance with follow-up rules. Based on the inspections, it can be established that most of the buffets are clean, tidy and operate safely from a food hygiene point of view, he added.

Dr. Helik Ferenc, the deputy president of Nébih, confirmed that the aim of the authority is not to impose as many penalties as possible, but to ensure that customers and consumers have access to safe food in restaurants as well. After the beach buffets, the inspection that is about to start now affects restaurants operating around Lake Balaton. He also drew the attention of caterers to typical errors, such as the preservation of documents certifying the origin of the goods, or the proper storage of products that require refrigeration.

According to the relevant regulations of the World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH), Hungary regained its freedom from highly pathogenic avian influenza. The favorable status for the entire country allows for unimpeded trade of live poultry and poultry products with individual third countries.

WOAH has officially confirmed our country’s freedom from highly pathogenic bird flu  on its website . The favorable classification is valid retroactively from June 28, so it already applies to poultry products made after that. The national chief veterinarian Dr. Szabolcs Pásztor informs the competent authorities of the partner countries about the exemption in an official letter in order to lift the import restrictions. It is important that with the recovery of our exemption, deliveries to third countries cannot start automatically, but must wait for their feedback.  Stakeholders can find up-to-date commercial information about third countries on the  Nébih website .

Franchi’s online catalog can be accessed here!

However, regaining the exemption does not mean that the epidemic prevention discipline can be relaxed. The virus is still present in wild birds, so there is a high risk that it will reappear in poultry flocks. That is why it is extremely important that livestock keepers comply with the minimum epidemic prevention conditions, thus minimizing the direct or indirect contact of poultry with wild birds. Currently, the provisions requiring feeding and drinking in covered places, preferably closed from the side, are still valid throughout the country. Feed and litter must be stored in a closed place, or the latter must be covered with foil so that wild birds cannot access it.

You can read information and current information about bird flu on the  thematic page of Nébih  .
