Abstract

This chapter provides a general overview of the current food policy in the European Union from the consumers’ viewpoint. It describes the European Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed (RASFF) approach on the legal level and with reference to notification procedures. In particular, the chapter explains the definition of original notifications—alerts, border rejection episodes and information ‘for follow-up’ and ‘for attention’—and non-original notifications. The history of RASFF, which had originally been introduced in 1979, is briefly reviewed on the basis of the historical evolution of Food Policy in the European Union and food scares.
