Nanotechnology – FDF Response to House of Lords Select Committee Enquiry
FDF's responsed to the House of Lords Science and Technology Committee's enquiry
into the use of nanotechnologies in food
We believe there is a need for adequate safety assessment in all applications of
nanotechnologies, where their application gives rise to changes in existing
products or processes, such that a new assessment of any risks to human health
or
the environment may be required. We believe that it is possible to adapt the
existing regulatory system to deal with new scientific evidence on engineered
nanoparticles as necessary.
