In 2006 the Hungarian system of food safety regulation
was described as “chaotic” 1, fragmented and
lacking accountability.2 Now, five years later and
almost seven years after Hungary’s accession to the
European Union (EU) it is time to take stock again.
Food safety regulation has undergone a “threefold
change” and follows a separated model. Competences
for risk assessment, risk management and risk communication
are well distributed and the Hungarian
Food Safety Office (HFSO)/Magyar Élelmiszer-biztonsági
Hivatal (MÉBiH) fits into the overall structure
now. But there are still problems concerning its legal
position, weak status and especially insufficient independence.
This report shows the evolution of the Hungarian system
and highlights the brand new developments and
the current situation, challenges and organisation of
the HFSO.3 |
