The Canadian Food Inspection Agency is seeking feedback on a regulatory proposal to enhance import controls. This proposal may directly affect you if you import food products in the Non Federally Registered Sector (NFRS). These products include all food and food ingredient regulated solely under the Food and Drugs Act and account for 70% of the food products available in the Canadian marketplace.
The CFIA is seeking stakeholder feedback on the regulatory proposal, with a view to gauging the level of support for the initiative being considered and identifying any suggestions for alterations to the proposal.
This consultation is open for comment from August 16 to October 4, 2010. Anyone can provide comments.
We would like to hear your ideas, concerns and suggestions on the regulatory proposal.
If you have any additional questions please submit them to one of the following:
