IMPACT OF THENeWEU REGULATORY FRAMEWORK ON THE EXPORT OF FISHERY PRODUCTS

摘要

The food security policy of the eU aims at three main objectives, which are (i) ensuring a high level of protection of human and animal health, (ii) putting the quality at the centre of the preoccupations, and (iii) re-establishing confidence in consumers. In this regard an upgrade of the regulatory framework has been made which institutes a new regime in connection with hygiene of foodstuffs (Hygiene packet). The latter contributes to the strengthening of measures of food security assurance and recognizes for the first time in food legislation the application of the precautionary principle.
