Approved Test

MAF requirements for test methods used to demonstrate conformance of dairy material and dairy
product.
July-2011
Preamble
The purpose of this guidance is to provide clarification on the requirements relating to approval of dairy test methods.
Legal requirements
Under clause 9 of the Animal Products (Dairy Recognised Agency and Recognised Persons Specifications) Notice 2011 Number 2 it states:
9 Approval of test methods

(1) The prior approval of the Director-General must be obtained for
(a) test methods intended to measure parameters specified in Schedule 1
Schedule 1
Inhibitory Substances
Residues and Contaminants in raw milk
Farm dairy water clarity
Foreign Matter
(2) With the exception of those test methods covered under clause 9(1), Director General approval of test methods is not required provided
(a) analysis is undertaken in a dairy laboratory that is recognised by MAF in the appropriate category for the required test and
(b) the test methodology used is specified within the scope of the laboratory accreditation/assessment and has been validated for the intended product type(s)
(3)The exception in 9(2) does not apply where a particular method has been specified by way of Notice under the Animal Products Act 1999.
These requirements apply from the 18th of July 2011
The attached spreadsheet details all MAF approved methods, including those approved under the previous criteria detailed in clause 9 of the Animal Products
(Dairy Recognised Agency and Recognised Persons Specifications) Notice 2005.
Laboratories and RMP operators are required to review the above criteria in order to determine whether a MAF approved test method is required to be used.
If a MAF approved test method is required to be used but there is no method listed on the attached spreadsheet (or use of an alternative method is desired) a
request for approval can be sent to MAF for consideration using the form located on the MAF website:
