[[Australia]] and [[New Zealand]] jointly agreed to wheat flour fortification through the [[Food Standards Australia New Zealand]] in 2007. The requirement was set at 135&nbsp;μg of folate per 100&nbsp;g of bread. Australia implemented the program in 2009. New Zealand was also planning to fortify bread (excluding organic and unleavened varieties) starting in 2009, but then opted to wait until more research was done. The Association of Bakers and the [[Green Party of Aotearoa New Zealand|Green Party]] had opposed mandatory fortification, describing it as "mass medication". Food Safety Minister [[Kate Wilkinson (politician)|Kate Wilkinson]] reviewed the decision to fortify in July 2009, citing as reasons to oppose claims for links between over consumption of folate with increased risk of cancer. In 2012 the delayed mandatory fortification program was revoked and replaced by a voluntary program, with the hope of achieving a 50% bread fortification target.</div>FuzzyBot
