The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) is launching a Web-based consultation tool to gather feedback from stakeholders on the current work plans of the Canada-United States Regulatory Cooperation Council (RCC) and to provide input on future opportunities. The last date for submitting the feedback is October 31, 2017.
The RCC is a joint initiative of the two countries that facilitates regulatory cooperation between them and aims to enhance economic competitiveness while protecting their health, safety and environment.
Since 2012, the CFIA, in cooperation with the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), has developed annual joint work plans in the areas of animal health, food safety, meat inspection and certification and plant health.
The Web-based consultation tool will provide a consistent structure for stakeholders to provide feedback on the RCC initiatives that matter to them, and inputs on future opportunities.
The information gathered during the aforementioned consultation period will be used to help develop the next iteration of RCC work plans for food safety, meat inspection and certification, animal health and plant health.
