Title: Availability of Lists of Retail Consignees During Meat or Poultry Product Recalls 
Abstract: The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has proposed to amend the Federal meat and poultry products inspection regulations to provide that the Agency will make available to the public lists of the retail consignees of meat and poultry products that have been voluntarily recalled by a federally inspected meat or poultry products establishment. FSIS has proposed this action because it believes that making this information available will be of significant value to consumers and the industry. It will clarify what products should be removed from commerce and from consumersÂ’ possession because there is reason to believe they are adulterated or misbranded.
