Resumen
Descripción
Legislation based on international
standards and harmonized between trade partners facilitates
trade and enables products from developing countries to be
competitive in the international market. Countries looking
to export to the EU should aim to harmonize legislation with
EU rules. If exporting to EU markets is not a priority,
countries should follow requirements of the WTO SPS
agreement and thus ensure that their products can access
markets of all WTO member states. Both the EU and WTO
legislative models for food safety require a risk-based
approach to food safety controls, prioritizing funds and
activity on the most risky areas. Reforms in this area
should be primarily focused on ensuring food safety,
although ensuring that consumers are receiving the quality
of food that they expect is also a consideration. When
planning legislative reform, the burden on business should
be carefully considered, and consultation with the business
community is strongly recommended to obtain a good
understanding of the business perspective. Public awareness
on the need for reforms can be important and it is essential
to outline the benefits of improved food safety legislation
to consumers and their representative bodies as they can
help to support reforms and sustain their results.
