Web Seminar Details:
For years, FDA has been beleaguered, battered by scandals from drug safety and counterfeiting to food safety issues from BPA to melamine to salmonella.
The “new” FDA associated with the new Obama administration has already shown itself to be tougher on industry than in recent years. There is new support for revitalizing FDA, reorganizing it, and support is growing for some Congressional changes in the law that would give FDA new food safety tools like the power to require HACCP-like controls for all almost all food makers, and the power to order food recalls.
This IoPP web seminar, presented by Eric Greenberg, Principal Attorney, Eric F. Greenberg P.C., will explain the most important ways in which FDA is new, and how packaging makers and users are being affected.
