tabling member constituency	North West Norfolk

uin	23436
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/06/2022 answer text <p>The Food Standards Agency (FSA) does not generally have a role in authorising conventionally bred crops, unless these have been processed into food or feed and are defined within a ‘regulated products’ category. Where a crop has been grown overseas but has not previously been eaten to a significant degree in the United Kingdom or the European Union, it may need authorisation as a ‘novel food’ before it can be sold in this country. Similarly, if a crop has been eaten for generations in the UK, but is then processed into a significantly different form, it may need authorisation as a novel food. If food businesses are unsure about whether a product needs authorisation as a regulated product, the FSA can provide advice.</p> answering member constituency Erewash answering member printed Maggie Throup question first answered 28/06/2022 16:08:56 answering member 4447 label Biography information for Maggie Throup
