European Food Safety Authority

A Policy agency, also called EFSA

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) was created as part of a comprehensive programme to improve EU food safety, ensure a high level of consumer protection and restore and maintain confidence in the EU food supply. EFSA provides independent scientific advice on all matters with a direct or indirect impact on food safety. This advice informs European laws, rules and policymaking – and so helps protect consumers from risks in the food chain. EFSA’s remit covers food and feed safety, nutrition, animal health and welfare, plant protection and plant health.
