Protecting the food supply from intentional adulteration, such as acts of terrorism
As part of the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued on May 27, 2016 a final rule to require domestic and foreign food facilities, with some exceptions, to address hazards that may be introduced with the intention to cause wide-scale harm to public health. Ryan Newkirk, Senior Advisor for Intentional Adulteration with the Food Defense and Emergency Coordination Staff at FDA and Jon Woody, Director, Food Defense and Emergency Coordination Staff, talk about the new rule and what the FDA is doing to support industry compliance.
