EUROPEAN REGULATION IN THE VETERINARY SANITARY AND FOOD SAFETY AREA, A COMPONENT OF THE EUROPEAN POLICIES ON THE SAFETY OF FOOD PRODUCTS AND THE PROTECTION OF CONSUMER INTERESTS: A 2007 RETROSPECTIVE. PART TWO: REGULATIONS

Summary/Abstract: The European regulation of the veterinary sanitary and food safety area is carried out in different ways, depending on various factors. The main European regulatory acts regulating the veterinary sanitary and food safety area are Regulations, Directives and Decisions. The 86 regulations passed during 2007 posed a significant challenge for the veterinary sanitary and food safety administration in Romania. The primordial role in passing the specific regulations was played by the European Commission. The year 2007 was the year of the passing of several basic regulations with important influence upon the agro-alimentary line in the years that would follow. The subdomains that regulations apply to have an obvious tendency of expanding in comparison to the previous periods, considering the new challenges on the agro-alimentary line, represented mostly by chemical and microbiological hazards. All regulations are centered around the protection of the agro-alimentary line, food safety and the protection of consumer interests.
