Minister for Agriculture Michael Creed has launched a three-year food safety and food authenticity strategy, which aims to help guarantee food safety as the agri-food sector grows.
“Our future plans for food safety and food authenticity are ambitious, but we should not fear the breadth of our ambition as we dedicate our resources to improvement,” Minister Creed stated.
The Department will be working closely with the Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) to deliver the strategy.

“This is an important initiative that sets out a clear strategy to further consumer health within an ever-changing global food supply system,” Dr Pamela Byrne of the FSAI said.
“Assuring authenticity, monitoring the food chain, detecting fraudulent and deceptive practices and continually developing the best food safety systems, aligned to new and emerging food safety legislation, is embedded in our organisation's DNA,” she added.
