Food poisoning

La solicitud fue parcialmente exitosa.

Dear Consumers, Health and Food Executive Agency,

Under the right of access to documents in the EU treaties, as developed in Regulation 1049/2001, I am requesting documents which contain the following information:

1) The number of cases of food poisoning that were reported in Ireland between 2010-2015.

2) How many of these complaints were made after eating in a restaurant/ delicatessen.

3) If these places had been recently inspected by the health board.

4) If it had been observed that staff working in these places had followed through with the HAASAP procedure.

I look forward to your response.

Yours faithfully,

Claire Prenty

Agencia Ejecutiva de Consumidores, Salud y Alimentación

Dear Ms Prenty,
The Agency for Consumers, Health, Agriculture and Food Executive Agency (Chafea) has forwarded us your request for information as it falls within the competency of the Directorate General for Health and Food Safety of the European Commission.

The information you request is to some extent publically available. Our agencies, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) prepare annual reports on the zoonotic agents and foodborne outbreaks. Please follow this link to obtain all the data for the year 2013 (http://www.efsa.europa.eu/en/efsajournal... ). You will also find country-specific data for Ireland published there.

As regards your questions 3) and 4) we do not have the information requested as this falls under the competency of the Irish competent authorities, to whom we would thus like to refer you to.
Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) https://www.fsai.ie/
The Department of Agriculture, Food and Marine http://www.agriculture.gov.ie/

Please do not hesitate to contact us in case you have further questions.

Kind regards,
