FONTERRA CHIEF executive Theo Spierings has welcomed the release of the Government inquiry report into the whey protein concentrate contamination incident.

FEDERATED FARMERS believes the hard-hitting independent inquiry report of WPC80 for Fonterra's board delivers a series of recommendations vital for the cooperative to adopt.

THE FONTERRA BOARD'S Independent Inquiry has made 33 recommendations to address issues that led to the WPC80 precautionary recall and its responses to the event.

The Government inquiry into Fonterra's botulism contamination must examine the impact budget cuts at the Ministry for Primary Industries had on the food scare, Labour's Primary Industries spokesperson Damien O'Connor says.

The terms of inquiry for the Government's investigation into the Fonterra whey protein concentrate contamination (WPC) incident have been released.

An independent inquiry into the circumstances of quality issues with a whey protein concentrate (WPC80), announced by Fonterra's Board early this week, is now underway.

Fonterra's board has established the WPC80 Inquiry Committee, and charged them to oversee an independent review into the circumstances giving rise to the affected whey protein concentrate (WPC80) and subsequent chain of events.

Fonterra chairman John Wilson has announced an independent review of the cooperative's performance at the time of, and following, the manufacture of the affected whey protein concentrate.
