2023 marked the 25th anniversary since the establishment of the Authority, providing a good opportunity to look back at how the food control system has evolved.
This year’s annual report highlights the extensive work and achievements of the FSAI in the midst of an increasingly challenging external environment. External challenges which impact on food safety include the potential for food supply disruption due to political unrest in the Middle East and the war in Ukraine, regulatory divergence as a consequence of Brexit, the critical focus on environmental sustainability and its unintended consequences for food safety and the growing importance of health and wellness in society.
