APPENDIX 3

CCP DECISION TREE

This appendix contains a decision tree that may be used to assist you in the identification of critical control points. You should not rely exclusively on the decision tree, as error may result.

The decision tree is derived from that developed by the National Advisory Committee on Microbiological Criteria for Foods (NACMCF).
