The Civic and Municipal Affairs Bureau (IACM) announced yesterday that no Dutch eggs have been imported into Macau this year.
Foreign media reported last week that a large number of eggs were contaminated with fipronil, a toxic anti-lice agent, banned from being used to treat animals destined for human consumption, including chickens.
After checking the food safety information released by the Dutch authorities, the bureau confirmed that Macau did not import any eggs from the Netherlands this year, according to an IACM statement.
