Bill Summary

This bill exempts meat and meat food products slaughtered and prepared in state for sale in state from certain inspections.

AI Summary

This bill exempts meat and meat food products that are slaughtered and prepared within the state for sale within the state from certain inspections, specifically those handled by custom slaughter facilities. This means that if an animal is slaughtered and its meat is processed solely for distribution to New Hampshire households, restaurants, hotels, boarding houses, grocery stores, or other businesses that prepare meals or sell meat directly to consumers within the state, these products will no longer be subject to the same inspection requirements as other meat products. The bill repeals and reenacts RSA 427:2-a, I(b) to reflect this change, which will become effective 60 days after its passage.
