4. Which of these is a good example of target and critical limit?

B. At the step of cooling target level is to achieve 10°C within 70 minutes and critical limit is to achieve 10°C within 90 minutes

The critical temperature for deliveries of cooked meat is 5 °C and the target level 8°C.

At the step of cooking target level is 78 °C for 2 minutes and critical limit is 75 °C 30 seconds

At the step of preparation, the critical limit is for food to bat at ambient temperatures for no more than 1 hour and the target is for no more than 120minutes

Cleaning and disinfection

13 / 15

13. Question 2 of the codex decision tree asks 'Is the step specifically designed to eliminate the likely occurrence of a hazard or reduce it to an acceptable level' If the answer to this is yes, then:

the step should be identified as a critical control point

the step should be dealt with as a prerequisite and requires monitoring

question 3 of the decision tree should be asked to determine whether it is a critical point

the step is not critical and no control is required
