EFSA Public consultation FCM - science for safety assessments

EFSA’s experts have reviewed recent scientific developments that could be taken into account when considering an update of EU guidelines for the safety assessment of substances used in food contact materials. The Authority calls on European and national risk assessors and risk managers as well as stakeholders and the scientific community, to provide feedback on the issues posed in this draft scientific opinion.
At EFSA’s recent Food Ingredients and Packaging Network meeting, the Authority shared the draft with national experts from EU Member States. All stakeholders and interested parties are invited to submit their comments online by 7 October 2015 (EFSA News, 7 July 2015).
