IPOH: Following numerous complaints by religious leaders, the Government has decided that there will be only one body issuing halal certificates and labels to denote food that can be consumed by Muslims. 

The respective state religious affairs councils have agreed and the Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry will submit its working paper to the Islamic Development Department (Jakim) for fine-tuning before the decision is carried out.
