0 Comments

 
Singapore's Food Authority, Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority (AVA) has just issued a draft regulatory framework on Novel Food and Novel Food Ingredient. The proposed regulatory framework provides the definition and scope of novel foods, safety assessment criteria of novel foods and the processes involved for applications for the use of novel food. According to the proposed regulatory framework, the safety of  novel food ingredients must be assessed prior to sales. Novel foods and novel food ingredients which have been assessed to be safe would also be listed in legislation, which is openly available to all members of the food industry. Members of the public are invited to provide comments on the proposed definition and categories of the novel food by 7th May 2018. Once the regulation is implemented, it will provide clarity on the regulatory process for new/innovative food ingredients in Singapore
