question text	To ask His Majesty's Government, following changes in EU standards regarding the maximum level of arsenic in food, what plans they have to amend the standards for maximum level of arsenic in food.
tabling member printed	Baroness Bennett of Manor Castle
uin	HL6291
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/03/2023 answer text <p>There are no immediate plans to revise the standards for arsenic in food. To protect consumers there are currently maximum levels in place for inorganic arsenic in foods such as rice which contribute to overall consumer exposure. We will always maintain strong rules on arsenic levels in food and keep our position under very close review guided by the risk analysis undertaken by the Food Standards Agency. We work closely with regulators across Europe and the rest of the world to ensure that we take account of global best practice and prioritise safety for our citizens.</p> answering member printed Lord Markham question first answered 20/03/2023 12:18:46 answering member 4948 label Biography information for Lord Markham
