Consultations
The Agency carries out numerous formal consultations, inviting the views of the food industry, consumers and others on topics ranging from proposed changes in regulations to new food policy initiatives.
A list of proposed consultations has been compiled to aid stakeholders by providing advance notification of consultations the FSA expects to publish on it's website in the near future. The proposed list is subject to change however, and some proposed consultations may even be withdrawn completely. The fact that a proposed consultation appears on the list should not therefore be taken as an indication that the consultation will actually proceed. View list of proposed consultations
