According to Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ), on November 15, 2021, they issued Notification Circular 178-21, which approved Application A1244 and Application A1238.

Application A1244 amends the Australian New Zealand Food Standards Code for approval of a new processing aid, a chymosin enzyme derived from a genetically modified strain of Trichoderma reesei, for use in the manufacture of certain dairy foods.

Application A1238 permits serine endopeptidase sourced from a genetically modified strain of Trichoderma reesei containing the serine endopeptidase gene from Malbranchea cinnamomea, as a processing aid in the manufacture of vegetable and animal protein hydrolysates.
