This document sets out New Zealand’s strategic objectives in Codex for 2022-2026 period. New Zealand has been a member of Codex since its establishment in 1963 and attaches great importance to its work. MPI, as the lead agency for Codex in New Zealand works closely with all interested parties in advancing our strategic objectives and promoting the development of international food standards for health protection and trade.

The food and fibre sector’s span is considerable, from paddock, orchard, forest and ocean, through to the processing, packaging, and transportation system, all the way to the market, and ultimately to consumers worldwide. Its activities cover 52 percent of New Zealand’s land mass, and 4 million square kilometres of ocean.
