Article 22 Records to be kept by packing centres
United Kingdom
Packing centres shall record separately, by farming method and by day:
the quantities of ungraded eggs they receive, broken down by producer, giving the name, address and producer code and the laying date or period;
after the eggs are graded, the quantities by quality and weight grade;
the quantities of graded eggs received coming from other packing centres, including the code of those packing centres and the date of minimum durability;
the quantities of ungraded eggs delivered to other packing centres, broken down by producer, including the code of those packing centres and the laying date or period;
the number and/or weight of eggs delivered, by quality and weight grade, packing date in the case of Class B eggs or the date of minimum durability in the case of Class A eggs, and by purchaser, with the name and address of the latter.
Packing centres shall update their physical stock records each week.
Where Class A eggs and their packs bear an indication of how laying hens are fed in accordance with Article 15, packing centres using such indications shall keep separate records in accordance with paragraph 1.
For the purposes of this Article, instead of keeping records of sales and deliveries, packing centres may keep files of invoices and delivery notes marked as indicated in paragraphs 1 and 2.
