The purpose of these guidelines is to provide guidance to FSANZ for determining the equivalence of alternative measures applied to achieve the safety of imported and domestically produced foods for sale in Australia and, where relevant, in New Zealand. Measures subject to equivalence determination, as discussed in this document, are the measures which fall within FSANZ's responsibility, primarily food standards. The guidelines will assist FSANZ in determining equivalence in a reliable, consistent and transparent manner.
