This document is designed to assist national food safety authorities in the development of a HACCP strategy for SLDBs within a national food safety policy. It is the product of collective national and international experience. Wherever possible, examples of national approaches are provided. While acknowledging the barriers facing SLDBs in their attempts to implement HACCP systems, approaches to addressing these barriers that have been tried and tested around the world are presented. The objective is to provide FAO/WHO member countries and relevant stakeholders with practical solutions for the implementation of HACCP in SLDBs

It is also impractical to expect sea-going bulk tankers to return empty to the original loading posts upon delivery of their cargo of fats and oils.

In 2004 FAO and WHO agreed that more work was needed in this area and this was endorsed by the Codex Committee on Food Hygiene. FAO and WHO then initiated a programme of activities to address this, with the ultimate objective of providing guidance in the application of MRA to establish specific numerical targets or standards. These activities have included the establishment of a number of working groups to look at the issues and the results of microbiological risk assessment to develop food control measures, with particular emphasis on the establishment of targets or metrics and their application. The outputs of these working groups and other relevant documentation were then considered and discussed by an expert meeting convened in Kiel,...

The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) is an international expert scientific committee that is administered jointly by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO). It has been meeting since 1956, initially to evaluate the safety of food additives. Its work now also includes the evaluation of contaminants, naturally occurring toxicants and residues of veterinary drugs in food.
