Food inspectors say delays to post-Brexit EU import checks leave them in a 'difficult position'.
BBC News, Suffolk
Hannah Panting from the Suffolk Port Health Authority has four months to prepare for the introduction of EU food import checks "The unknown is very difficult to work with," she says. "It's nice to be able to have a plan and know what your targets are. "We have trailers that arrive on a ferry at midnight in Felixstowe ," she says, adding those checks still needed to be done "in a timely manner" so as not to "delay trade".
The team physically inspects between 40 and 70 containers each day from outside the EU, carrying out annual checks on 100,000 containers. Port health authority veterinarian Damelis Quiñones heats up some of the cooked chicken, pulls it apart and tastes it to check it is not rotten.
