看圖書介紹Much has happened since the publication of ’A Practical Guide to Food Law in the United Kingdom - 2nd Edition’. Now, more than ever, is an exciting time to be involved in food law.
The foundations of current UK (GB) food law are based on its membership of the European Union. However, regulatory divergence is becoming more noticeable and we are starting to see the impact of the changes brought about by the UK being a Third Country outside the EU.
Nevertheless, the core principles of food law remain as clear and important as ever; how to protect the health and interest of consumers. This book provides practical advice on the application of some key food laws to fulfill these requirements.
Topics covered in this book include general food law, safety, hygiene, food information and nutrition and health claims. It also includes chapters on specific obligations placed on the food business operator such as traceability, withdrawal and recall. There are also chapters dealing with official controls, the powers of competent authorities, enforcement and how to challenge official actions, criminal prosecutions and sentencing.
The focus is on providing basic information in a readable and practical way to help the reader navigate some of the complexities of modern-day food law and practice.
This revised edition will be of particular interest to anyone involved in the food industry, students and academics as well as those involved in the regulatory and legal aspects of food law.
