Surveillance Sampling Programme (2023-24)

Article scientifique 2024 Anglais

Résumé

EvidenceThis is the fourth national surveillance sampling of retail food products carried out by the Official Feed and Food Laboratories (OLs) in England and Wales to help identify emerging food safety risks and increase the Food Standards Agency's (FSA's) intelligence on the food system.A total of 31 commodities were identified as key areas of interest and were divided into three categories.The basket of foods included 15 commodities deemed to be frequently consumed and targeted for surveillance due to known potential safety and authenticity risks.The Surveillance category included 12 commodities for which surveillance is deemed useful to inform the FSA's knowledge of emerging risks; and the Science and Research category included four commodities that the FSA needed more data to inform science and policy.The results from the basket of foods contribute to the FSA and Food Standards Scotland (FSS) Annual Food Standards Report.
