that any material used for packaging fresh meat is not re-used for this purpose unless it is made of a non-corrodible and impervious substance which is easy to clean and has been cleaned and disinfected prior to re-use for packaging meat;

that every package bears the health mark either on the package or on a clearly visible label affixed to the package or wrapping material which fulfils the requirements of sub-paragraph (e) of Part I above and that the health mark includes the approval number of the cutting premises except that, in the case of offal which is wrapped or packaged in a slaughterhouse, it bears the number of that slaughterhouse and that the health mark is applied in such a way that it is torn when the package is opened and that labels are serially numbered; and

that packages contain fresh meat of only one animal species.
