Codex

Sep 27, 2024

27th session of the Codex Committee for Food Import and Export Inspection and Certification Systems (CCFICS) has concluded with the adoption of the report, after a week of detailed discussion on an array of issues.

During this week, the Committee discussed three draft texts. One, the draft guidelines on prevention and control of food fraud was progressed significantly and, consequently, will be forwarded to CAC47 for adoption at Step 5. An EWG chaired by the United States of America will consider outstanding issues and comments, as well as the reference in the text to feed for food producing animals.

The Committee agreed that further work is needed on the draft consolidated Codex guidelines related to equivalence, and draft revision and updating of the Principles for Traceability/Product Tracing as a Tool within a Food Inspection and Certification System (CXG 60-2006).
