An online food safety information site for consumers and those working in the area has been set up by the White House Food Safety Working Group.
The group's charge:
To have safe food that does not cause us harm and to enhance our food safety systems by fostering coordination throughout the government including enhancing our food safety laws for the 21st century. These laws will be designed to keep the American people safe and will be enforced.
The group's commitment:
To modernize food safety by building collaborative partnerships with consumers, industry and our regulatory partners. Through a transparent process, build a food safety system that will meet the challenges posed by a global food supply in the 21st century.
