Sri Lanka temporarily suspends New Zealand milk powder
A Sri Lankan court has issued an order temporarily banning the sale, distribution and advertising of all milk products made by New Zealand dairy co-operative Fonterra.
Gampaha Additional District Court judge issued the enjoining order after taking up a case filed by a health sector trade union seeking the ban on all dairy products from the New Zealand dairy producer.
New Zealand's Foreign Minister Murray McCully is expected to visit Sri Lanka next week to discuss a ban on 39 tonnes of Anchor product made by Fonterra.
