Can end food unspoken rules: Food safety law faces seven Tests

There used to be a "joke": "The Chinese are chemically literate through food ——— know paraffin wax from rice; knew the dichlorvos from the ham, knew Sudan red from the chili sauce, knew formalin from the hotpot, knew the copper sulfate from the fungus, and knew the melamine from the milk powder ..." in the last ten years,　　This one after another once unknown name because of the frequent food safety incidents have been become street know Lane, food safety has become the most concern of the public and the most concerned about the issue, legislation urgently. To this end, a wide range of public opinion, in three years a few drafts, repeated revisions and after four trial of the "Food Safety law" was finally born, and today, the old "food hygiene law" at the same time abolished. Netizens recently summed up the "Leather protein powder", "Formaldehyde silver Fish" and a series of food industry "unspoken rules", and asked: "Food safety law" is these "unspoken rules" of the Terminator?　　Yesterday, the reporter interviewed Guangdong Food and Drug Regulatory Bureau researcher Zhang Yigui, Food Safety Coordination department head Yang Yi and so on a group of experts. Test: The claim: Stone children once claimed no door: first compensation after punishment last September, the domestic famous enterprise Sanlu Group announced the recall of 700 tons of chemical melamine contaminated infant formula. Finally, the 52-Year-old brand of Sanlu ended in bankruptcy, the parents of stone children had no way to claim. The problem was eased until the compensation fund was finally set up.　　However, if it is the issue of compensation in ordinary consumer disputes, I am afraid it is difficult to enjoy the convenience of "special affairs". Expert diagnosis: Consumers in the dispute after the claim link, usually in the weak. In particular, if the enterprise is facing bankruptcy or failure, consumers may simply not be able to recover the loss.　　In addition, because the functions of different departments, consumers in the complaints may also encounter is "buck" situation. New law: To provide greater protection for consumer claims. According to the provisions of the Food Safety law, enterprises if the first to pay fines, fines, the remaining property can not compensate consumers, the first to compensate consumers, and then accept other penalties, fully protect the rights and interests of consumers. Moreover, the law enforcement department does not want to "buck". "Food Safety Law" stipulates that the county-level Health Administration, quality supervision, industry and commerce, Food and Drug Administration departments received advice, complaints, reports, to belong to the responsibilities of the Department, shall not be prevarication, to promptly reply, verify and deal with.　　If it is not in the responsibility of the Department, it shall be notified in writing and transferred to the competent department. Test: Metamorphic event: Business can be arbitrary buck: the public responsible for the people Mr. Wang from a community supermarket to buy yogurt is still in the shelf life, the result has been spoiled. He through the manufacturer's telephone complaints, the other side response, the product before the factory inspected no problem, the problem should be in the supermarket sales, such as high temperature preservation. Mr. Wang found the supermarket again, but the other side insisted that it was not his own problem. "Manufacturers blame businesses, businesses and push manufacturers, in the end who should be responsible for?" "Expert diagnosis: According to the original regulations, the law of the Sales enterpriseResponsibility is not clear.　　In other words, if the business is improperly preserved and the product is in trouble, consumers will lack a strong and sufficient legal basis if they want to recover the compensation. New law: "Food Safety Act" stipulates that food operators should be in accordance with food labels marked warning signs, warning notes or attention to the requirements of the sale of prepackaged food. If the producer (seller) knowingly, produces or sells food that does not conform to food safety standards, the consumer may, in the event of a claim for damages, claim to the producer or the seller a compensation of 10 times times the price.　　As a result, the supervision of sellers has been greatly enhanced, and consumers have sufficient basis to claim against sellers who violate the rules. Test: Illegal Add event: Lean meat essence poisoning frequency is now a recruit: fine tube ruthless penalty maybe you haven't heard clenbuterol, but must know its alias "Lean meat Essence". This kind of people have the effect of asthma medicine for pigs to eat, will indirectly improve the meat rate of pigs, and then into the human body, it will cause poisoning.　　In fact, what should not be found in food is far more than "lean meat", there are also used to color Sudan, bleaching of the white block, foam ham to drive the flies, dichlorvos, polishing rice wax, used for anti-corrosion of formaldehyde. Expert diagnosis: The first is the enterprise has no conscience of the problem, followed by unscrupulous enterprises how to punish.　　In the past, the punishment of enterprises is not enough, the cost of enterprise crime is too low, so repeated penalties. New law: "Food Safety Act" to "produce food with Non-food raw materials", "Add food additives in food chemicals and other substances that may endanger human health", "the use of recycled food as raw materials to produce food" and so on are clearly included in the scope of supervision.　　At the same time also increased the amount of fines, according to the provisions of the maximum penalty value of 5 times times more than 10 times times the following fine, serious circumstances of revocation license. Test: Food Add event: The Special LUN su Milk promotes the cancer rumor to be added: it is necessary to add this February, Mongolian Newteron su omp milk was spread the hormone protein IGF-1 substance that suspected will promote cancer cell growth. Despite the company's immediate denial of the news, the Ministry of Health finally concluded that consumers drank omp milk without health hazards. But many consumers still have a lingering fear, and even more have already heard additive color change. Flavors, pigments, preservatives ...　　All kinds of food additives see consumers gripped with horror. Expert diagnosis: First, the state to allow the use of food additives have a directory, the scope of the directory is safe to use. The issue of the new resource food is involved in the special milk incident. "Food Hygiene Law" on this also has provisions, but relatively simple, only ask for product health evaluation and nutrition evaluation of the materials required, enterprises easy to play "edge".　　The fine threshold is also relatively low, only the illegal income of one to 3 times times below or 5000 yuan below fine. New law: "Food Safety Act" on food additives management more rigorous. In addition to the request for the use of new food raw materials, new varieties of additives and other units or individuals to submit related product safety AssessmentMaterials, but also groundbreaking for the first time to put forward the "technical necessity" of the conditions, a simple understanding is necessary to add.　　And the maximum amount of fines can be up to 5 times times the value of 10 times times more than the following. Test: Laws and regulations "Fight" event: Wanglaoji again into "Prunella vulgaris door": n this May, the red can wanglaoji again into embarrassing "Prunella vulgaris door." There are consumers who have added Prunella vulgaris this is not included in the "food is also the list of drugs," the material, want to be sued in court. Authorities in the Ministry of Health also acknowledged that some of the ingredients and raw materials in the Wong-Kee are not included in the list of permitted Chinese herbal medicines published by the Ministry of Health. When the spear pointed to Wanglaoji, the incident turned. Wang Old Ji responded, as early as 2005 has been the formula in the Ministry of Health Record. Finally, the incident to the Ministry of Health admitted that Prunella has been filed. However, it is still confusing to know why it is not on the statutory list since the case has been prepared in accordance with the law.　　Which of these "double standards" does that mean? Difficult diagnosis: This is due to the regulation (Legal allow list) update lag caused by the "fight" phenomenon.　　Many food standards and regulations in China are lagging behind.　　New law: The current "Food Hygiene Act" has not yet in response to food standards or regulations of the timely updating of the request. Test: Antibiotic Residue Event: problem multi-fish drugs exceed the standard: the management chain extends forward November 2006, the Shanghai Food and Drug Administration announced the results of a sampling of many precious fish, found that all 30 samples were seized of the nitro-furan type of metabolites. There is a fishing drug dealers broke a "unspoken rules": Many fish farmers are using Furacilin. In fact, not only the higher value of the aquatic products have antibiotic residues, milk also has the same problem.　　The worry is that if the long-term consumption of antibiotics residues of food, will increase the resistance of bacteria in the body, leading to the reduction or completely counteract the efficacy of antibiotics drugs. Difficult diagnosis: The original "Food hygiene law" provisions only for food, not to take into account the upstream agricultural products, such as food raw materials supervision, nor on the quality of agricultural products and antibiotic residues to make clear provisions.　　The quality control of agricultural products is regulated according to the regulations of the People's Republic of China on the quality and safety of agricultural products.　　New method: "Food safety law" requires the Health Administration department to "Agricultural products quality and safety standards" and other existing mandatory standards for food safety standards, will be the chain of management to extend greatly forward stage. Test: Brand Exemption event: Nestle milk powder iodine exceeded the standard: the elimination of Exemption April 2005, the world's largest food enterprises nestle in the Heilongjiang twins production of some batches of milk powder by Zhejiang Province, the Ministry of Commerce and Industry detected iodine content exceeded. Similar "problem" brand-name food is really quite a lot. The same year in early June, Zhengzhou Bright Mountain Union Dairy Co., Ltd. broke with expired milk into the new milk to sell the "Melt milk" event. Not long after, Haagen-Dazs also because of its shop in Shenzhen without access to food hygiene licenseUnder the conditions of western pastry processing, was fined 50,000 yuan by local health supervision.　　For domestic and foreign well-known food companies, many consumers are shocked, have questioned: brand-name food still credible? Difficult diagnosis: In order to promote the quality of enterprises to avoid a variety of repetitive inspection, reduce the burden on enterprises. The product Quality Supervision Department of the State Council has been implementing the national exemption system for product quality since 2000.　　Many well-known food enterprises also apply to the state to become exempt products, which also caused a new problem: in the exemption period, if the food quality problems, who should be responsible for? New law: "Food Safety Act" clearly stipulates that food safety supervision and management departments on food should not be exempt from inspection, blocking the regulatory loopholes.
