Your old mate has been around a few years and has seen and heard a few recommendations for reforms of the meat sector.
He suggests every red meat producer nationwide should read MIE’s report – especially since they forked out $220K from farmer levy funds to pay for it. However, your canine crusader is sceptical about how practical and possible it is to implement many of the document’s recommendations. Meanwhile, your old mate was intrigued by the report’s furtive comment thanking those who helped MIE’s consultants put it all together: “Certain processor CEO’s, managing directors, chairmen and directors who have supported these... initiatives (they know who they are)”. Well, ‘they’ might know who ‘they’ are, but the rest of us don’t and we’d like to.
