The second part, General inspection procedures, introduces the overall concept of risk-based inspection and describes basic inspection manual Risk-based food principles and components of food inspection, including organization of an inspection, authorization, rights and responsibilities of an inspector, prerequisite plan, regulatory action plan, traceability and recall plan and the closing, reporting and documentation of an inspection. The third part, General inspection approach for primary production facilities, explains the generic inspection procedures covering primary production. The fourth part, General inspection approach for food processing facilities, covers the generic inspection procedures for food processing operations. The fifth part, Enforcement and compliance, covers general aspects of food inspection, such as the regulatory basis of food safety and quality, the knowledge and skills needed by food inspectors and the compliance, enforcement, appeal and recall processes.

  • Food and Trust in Australia: Building a Picture
    Public Health Nutrition: 11(3), 237–245 DOI: 10.1017/S1368980007000250 Food and trust in Australia: building a picture John Coveney* Department of Public Health, Flinders University, Box 2100, Adelaide 5001, South Australia Submitted 8 December 2006: Accepted 29 March 2007: First published online 3 August 2007 Abstract Objective: To explore consumer trust in food, especially people’s experiences that support or diminish trust in the food supply; consumer practices to strengthen trust in food; and views on how trust in the food supply could be increased. Setting: Adelaide, South Australia. Design: In-depth qualitative research interviews and focus groups. Subjects: Women and men who are primary food providers in families (n 5 24). Results: Media coverage of food scares and scandals and personal experience of food-borne illness challenged respondents’ trust in the food system. Poor retail food handling practices and questionable marketing ploys by food manufacturers also decreased trust. Buying ‘Made-in-Australia’ produce and following food safety procedures at home were important practices to strengthen food trust. Knowledge of procedures for local food inspection and for national food reg- ulation to keep food safe was scanty. Having a strong regulatory environment governing food safety and quality was considered by respondents to be of prime importance for trust building. Discussion: The dimensions of trust found in this study are consistent with key theoretical aspects of trust. The need for trust in highly complex environments, in this case the food supply, was evident. Trust was found to be integral to food choice, and negative media reports, the sources of which themselves enjoy var- ious levels of dependability, were found to easily damage trust relationships.

ECE/TRADE/301 UNITED NATIONS PUBLICATION Sales No.E.04.II.E.4 ISBN 92-1-116890-2 ISSN 1020-7384 PREFACE This publication has been developed under the auspices of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) Working Part on Regulatory Cooperation and Standardization Policies, an intergovernmental group of experts responsible for advice and practical recommendations to Governments on good practices/approaches in eliminating technical obstacles to trade, and on regulatory and standardization cooperation. It draws primarily on the deliberations of the International Forum on Market Surveillance, which was held in Geneva in October 2002. The Forum was organized at the request of a number of countries in transition including countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). The restructuring of the regulatory and standardization framework in the countries in transition during the last decade has brought to light a major policy issue, this being how to ensure that legitimate requirements of governments (such as safety, health, environment) are met with the least possible restrictive consequences for trade.
