FDA seeks public comment on draft guidance for recalls

摘要

On May 7, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) entered draft guidance into the Federal Register on the implementation of the mandatory food recall provisions of Section 423 of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act), which was added by Section 206 of the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act of 2010 (FSMA). Section 206 of FSMA grants FDA the authority to order a recall on all articles of food (other than infant formula) that are manufactured, processed, packed or held at a food facility that is required to register under section 415(a) of the FD&C Act.
