Dear Anna,
I am writing to you in relation to the query below. Back in December 2009 you confirmed that dairy products from foot and mouth free countries (including those where vaccination is practised) were allowed into Australia.
I see that Uruguay continues to be listed as a FMD free country in this list http://www.oie.int/en/animal-health-in-the-world/official-disease-status/fmd/list-of-fmd-free-members/#c10693, however, my mother arrived last week bringing "dulce de leche" (spreadable caramel) made in Uruguay and she wasn't allowed to pass it.
Has any of the regulations changed since then?
Kind regards,
