Enforcement
The Food Standards Agency works closely with local authority food law enforcement officers to make sure that food law is applied throughout the food chain.
It provides advice on a range of enforcement issues. This advice sets out the rights and responsibilities of enforcement authorities and food businesses, and helps ensure that food safety and legal requirements are maintained and monitored.
The Agency also ensures that local authority monitoring of food businesses is carried out correctly by carrying out audits and collating data on local authorities’ enforcement activity.
Practical support to enforcement officers is available, including training programmes and grants for local programmes.
