Advisory Committee on Novel Foods and Processes

The Committee carries out safety assessments of food or process submitted for approval under the novel food regulation. Until 2004 the scope of this regulation included all foods produced using genetically modified organisms, but these are subject to approval under a separate regulation. The Committee still has a role in advising the Food Standards Agency on GM foods despite this change.

The secretariat that supports the committee has scientific expertise that enables them to provid background information and briefing papers that inform the decision-making processes of the Committee to members. As well as formal meetings, the Committee organises workshops on specific topics.
