Response to the Swedish National Food Agency’s consultation – Ref. 2020/01137
Swetic's Food working group has responded to the Swedish National Food Administration's referral regarding the determination of inspection frequency for regular risk-based official inspections of contact material operations, Ref. 2020/01137.
Swetic is generally positive about the Swedish Food Agency's referral and welcomes the proposed expansion of control. Major innovation is currently underway in both snus-like products and contact materials, which is why increasing the frequency of control is a prerequisite for ensuring safe products on the market and managing any risks to human health and the environment.
However, we choose to highlight some points of view in our consultation response, the headings for these are listed below:
- Regular review of standards
- Added value of third-party certification
- Large scale requires secured expertise
