[2011-03-29 13:48:07]
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) and the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) are currently drafting a set of new regulations to improve food safety in China, domestic media the Shanghai Securities News reported March 28, 2011.
The report said that in order to achieve better food safety in China, the two ministries are working on two guideline regulations: the 12th Five-Year-Plan for the food industry, including detailed development roadmap for sectors of processing meats, potatoes and grains; and the Implementation of Measures of Key Tasks to Improve Food Safety in 2011, which include setting access requirements to industries of concentrated fruits and vegetable and grape wine, closing down backward production facilities and technologies and tightening supervision into the abidance on standards.
Recent issues like excessive use of (harmful) additives in pig feeds to produce more lean meat have sparked people's concern over food safety and instilled a necessity for "safer food", Liu Jiawei, analyst of Dongxing Securities, said.
