UK launches nationwide review of meat processing plants

Renewed focus on food safety comes after 'serious incidents' at 2 Sisters and Russell Hume

The UK's food regulators are launching nationwide review of all meat cutting plants in the wake of "serious incidents" at 2 Sisters Food Group and Russell Hume.

The announcement comes days after the Food Standards Agency was criticised by a committee of MPs for failing to take "definite action" to improve food standards following a Guardian and ITV undercover investigation last year.
