IPC seminar Sustainability in the food & agricultural sector: the role of private sector and government Panel IV: Best practices / sustainability along the production chain Stratford-Upon Avon, England (15-16 October 2007) (Moustapha Magumu, DG SANCO – D3)

Content Context of EU legislative standards EU single market EU crises COM White Paper on food safety (2000) EU legislative standards & best practices EU legislative import conditions Benefits for DCs Challenges for DCs COM (FVO) assessment of SPS conditions in DCs Key EU SPS actions towards DCs

Context of EU legislative standards Single market Free movement of goods + live animals EU crises BSE 1990s, dioxin 1999, FMD 2001, CSV 2003 White paper on food safety 2000 Comprehensive reform legislation: from farm-to-table Food & feed safety, hygiene, nutrition, labelling, OGM, seeds, pesticides, increased transparency & information… Placing on market (import and trade), transit and export

EU Legislative standards encourage practices that best: Address economic, social and environmental sustainability for on and off-farm activities in ensuring food safety and quality of produce in the food chain Draw inspiration from international standards of the OIE, Codex, IPPC, etc More and more reference to HACCP, GAP, GMP, etc.

EU legislative import conditions Import conditions no more or less favourable than conditions applicable to EU producers Third Countries & plants must be approved to export to EU Certain basic conditions: OIE membership, surveillance & control system, residue monitoring, FVO inspection etc All animal products must enter EU via an approved BIP and must be checked for compliance with EU requirements.

Benefits for DCs arising from EU legislative standards Access to EU markets (EU=US+Jap+Can+Aust+N.Zealand) improve the safety & quality of food & non-food products reduce the risk of non-compliance with international regulations, standards and guidance (OIE, Codex, IPPC) promote sustainable & competitive agriculture & food chains via better management of key inputs.

Challenges for DCs arising from EU legislative standards High standards demanded by EU consumers Standards adoption often increases production & compliance costs Small scale farmers may not be able to seize benefits (e.g. export market opportunities) unless assisted, etc.

FVO inspections findings: most common deficiencies in DCs Country legislative framework and standards Structure & organisation of CA (management, staff training) Unreliable enforcement mechanisms (inspection, certification, monitoring & surveillance, controls) Sampling, laboratories/ analysis, residue control, authorisation & control of vet. medicines & pesticides Operators’ own checks.

Key EU SPS actions towards DCs 1. EPA negotiations Partnership Regional integration Development Link to WTO (SPS chapter).

2. SPS Technical assistance Direct country and regional assistance (10th EDF – CSP + RSP) Member States (bilateral).

3.Better Training for Safer Food food and feed law, animal health and welfare, plant health Higher protection, uniform controls, business level playing field, TC familiarity with EU standards COM financed, implemented by external contractors, for EU & TC inspectors & operators : organisation of ad-hoc training activities : Development of a permanent training system AI, food safety standards, Africa specific projects.
