The document discusses issues with India's existing food safety regulatory regime and the need for new legislation. It outlines key aspects of the Food Safety and Standards Act of 2006, including consolidating various food laws, establishing the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India to set science-based standards, and regulating the food supply chain from manufacturing to retail. The new Act aims to ensure safe and wholesome food is available for consumers and allows for stringent enforcement including penalties for violations.
Establish Food Safety and Standards Authority of India for laying down science based standards for articles of food and regulate their manufacture, storage, distribution, sale and import, to ensure availability of safe and wholesome food for human consumption.
To meet a country’s sanitary and phytosanitary requirements, food must comply with the local laws and regulations to gain market access. These laws ensure the safety and suitability of food for consumers, in some countries; also govern food quality and composition standards.
