Book Description
The production, marketing and exportation of food is particularly important to the Irish economy. The sector continues to grow and has played a very significant role in Ireland's financial recovery. This important new book provides a much needed overview of the field. It traces the history and development of the fledgling system of food law as it was in Ireland during colonial times and the Irish Free State, through to an examination of the current dynamic relationship between International, European Union and domestic laws on matters such as food safety, food labelling and advertising, protected food names, hygiene and food contamination. The book also contains detailed assessments of the ways in which the law is used to address current health concerns, such as those related to nutrition, obesity and alcohol abuse, as well as such issues as food fraud, animal welfare, organics and the use of technologies like genetic modification, cloning and nanotechnology in food production.

Foundations of EU Food Law and Policy
Author: Alberto Alemanno
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317133684
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 414
Book Description
This volume presents the viewpoints of academics, food lawyers, industry and consumer representatives as well as those of EU policymakers on the first ten years of activity of one of the most prominent European agencies. Its broader purpose, however, is to discuss the future role played by EFSA within the rapidly-evolving area of EU food law and policy. By revisiting and discussing the milestones in the history of EFSA, the collection provides forward-looking views of food leaders and practitioners on the future scientific and regulatory challenges facing the European Union. In particular, by presenting a critical assessment of the agency’s activities within its different areas of work, the book offers readers a set of innovative tools for evaluating policy recommendations and better equips experts and the public to address pressing regulatory issues in this emotive area of law and policy. Despite its celebratory mood, the book’s focus is more about the future than the past of EU food law and policy. Each chapter discusses how EFSA’s role has evolved and identifies what it should have done differently while presenting an overall assessment of how the agency has discharged its mandate.

International Food Safety Handbook
Author: Kees Van der Heijden
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351437429
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 832
Book Description
Covers all aspects of food safety--science, regulation, and labeling requirements--integrating major developments in the fields of toxicology, analytical chemistry, microbiology, hygiene, and nutrition. Designed to be a reference that bridges the gaps between science, regulation and control of food safety. While this might have been a rather ambitious aim, in putting together this book, the editors have certainly succeeded in gathering a group of experts from industry, government agencies, academia, consumer groups and the media whose knowledge and expertise reflect the complex and multisectoral/multidisciplinary nature of food safety." ---Food Science and Technology

Food Law
Author: Caoimhín MacMaoláin
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1782258035
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 346
Book Description
This book provides a broad conspectus on the application of EU and international regulation of the food sector on English law. It is aimed at practitioners and students of this vital and emerging branch of law, which has become an important part of current political and legal debate. It is written not just for lawyers as a statement of current law, but is also aimed at all those involved or interested in the food industry who wish to familiarise themselves with how the law is applied practically in this jurisdiction. The book commences with a short conceptual framework for the study of food law. It then provides a comprehensive and up-to-date account of current English law, explaining fully the detailed processes by which both international and national law and EU decision making have impacted upon most aspects of the production, sale and consumption of food in England. The book explains and assesses the operation of the current law by describing in detail the roles of Government, the Food Standards Agency and local enforcement authorities in the making and enforcing of laws concerning food. The work contains full outlines of the developments in the most significant areas of food law. It concentrates specifically on topics such as food labelling and advertising, quality and compositional requirements, geographical food names, genetic modification, organic production, animal welfare and also the role of law in tackling poor health, obesity, and diet-related disease. The book, though primarily designed as a law text, goes beyond the usual confines of such works. It sets out to explain and describe the impact of successive food crises, such as BSE and the use of horsemeat in beef products, on food safety and transparency requirements. The book considers and assesses how the existing rules on the chemical and biological safety of food impact on our law, and concludes with a review of the developing legal issues concerning the environmental impacts of current and proposed food law, in particular the relationship between food law, climate change and food security.

Formulations, Regulations, and Challenges of Nutraceuticals
Author: Tingirikari Jagan Mohan Rao
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1000910911
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
Formulations, Regulations, and Challenges of Nutraceuticals focuses on various novel micro- and nanocarriers being employed in the formulation and delivery of nutraceutical ingredients to increase their efficacy, bioavailability, safety, and stability. It also highlights the current challenges and future strategies for the development of novel nutraceuticals and functional foods with enhanced health benefits. The focus is on the formulations and regulations. As compared to traditional drugs, there are no minimal regulations on nutraceutical products, which make them more market friendly. Since nutraceutical ingredients have no defined regulations at global level, they are not considered as medicine or therapeutic agents. Some countries have devised their own guidelines for regulating the usage of nutraceuticals, either as pharmaceutical ingredients or as food supplements. This volume addresses the need for common regulatory guidelines with important research on the production of stable and efficient nutraceutical formulations. The numerous regulatory frameworks being employed in Asia and European regulatory agencies in commercialization of nutraceutical products produced by manufacturing companies are discussed. Chapters examine the factors affecting the stability of nutraceuticals in food and gut environments by stressing the results generated from in vitro and in vivo studies and suggests good manufacturing practices to be followed for the development of nutraceuticals. Formulations, Regulations, and Challenges of Nutraceuticals will be valuable for upper-level students, faculty, nutraceutical researchers and practitioners, regulatory agencies, and those involved in the production and development of nutraceutical products.
