Share your thoughts: Consultation – review of the Safe Food for Canadians Act
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) is consulting on the review of the Safe Food for Canadians Act (SFCA) to assess if improvements or changes are required to the provisions and operations of the Act.
The consultation is part of a broader legislative review of the Act and is not an evaluation of the Safe Food for Canadians Regulations (SFCR).
Industry, consumers, and interested stakeholders are encouraged to share their thoughts by May 27, 2024.
Faites-nous part de vos commentaires : Consultation – Examen de la Loi sur la salubrité des aliments au Canada
L’Agence canadienne d’inspection des aliments mène une consultation sur l’examen de la Loi sur la salubrité des aliments au Canada (LSAC) afin d’évaluer si des améliorations ou des changements sont nécessaires aux dispositions et au fonctionnement de la Loi.
La consultation sera menée dans le cadre d’un examen législatif plus vaste de la Loi et ne constitue pas un examen du Règlement sur la salubrité des aliments au Canada (RSAC).
L’industrie, les consommatrices et consommateurs et les parties prenantes sont invités à faire part de leurs commentaires d’ici le 27 mai 2024.
