This section applies to a person who, immediately before the commencement, held an accreditation under the repealed Act. The person, on the commencement, is taken to be the holder of an accreditation for the same business in the meat industry as the accreditation under the repealed Act authorised. The parts of the person’s program of production about food safety issues are taken to be the person’s food safety program. Safe Food must review the person’s food safety program within 1 year after the commencement to decide if the person’s program is an approved program. Until Safe Food reviews the food safety program, the program is taken to be the approved program for the accreditation. If the accreditation held by the person immediately before the commencement was subject to a restriction or condition, the accreditation the person is taken to hold on the commencement is also taken to be subject to a condition in the same terms, so far as practicable, as the restriction or condition.
