<p>European Union Legislation already requires that food contact materials must not
transfer harmful chemicals into food. Recent reports in the media have referred to
changes being introduced in the United States to ban the use of some perfluorochemicals
in food packaging. The Food Standards Agency has confirmed that perfluorochemicals
are not used in paper and cardboard fast food packaging in the United Kingdom and
will continue to work with the industry to ensure they meet their responsibilities
under the legislation.</p>
