Hormonal growth promotant information sheet
The European Union (EU) requires that beef and beef products exported to EU countries are not treated with hormonal growth promotants (HGPs). To ensure that Australia’s trade with the EU is not jeopardised, Australian law requires that all suppliers of HGPs be authorised to supply HGP products.
This information sheet describes how suppliers can meet their legal obligations when supplying HGPs.
