## Report on Amendment to Food Safety and Standards Authority of India Notification S.O. 97(E)
**1. Executive Summary:**
This report analyzes a notification published by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) on October 18, 2022. This notification constitutes an amendment to the original notification S.O. 97(E) dated January 10, 2017, concerning referral food laboratories. The amendment primarily involves changes to the designated referral food laboratories, their local areas/jurisdictions, and scope of testing. This report details the changes introduced by the amendment, the affected stakeholders, and the likely impact on food safety testing and compliance within India.
**2. Introduction:**
This report provides an informative overview of the amendment to the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) notification S.O. 97(E), based solely on the text provided. The analysis focuses on understanding the changes introduced by the amendment and their potential implications.
**3. Policy Overview:**
* This notification is an **amendment** to the original notification S.O. 97(E) dated January 10, 2017.
* **Core Objective(s):** To designate and update the list of referral food laboratories, their jurisdiction (local areas or states/UTs), and scope of testing, under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006. The objective, based on the notification, is to ensure adequate and appropriate laboratory support for food safety testing across the country.
**4. Background and Rationale:**
* The amendment suggests a need to update the designated referral food laboratories. This may be due to factors such as:
* Changes in laboratory capabilities or specializations.
* A need to redistribute the workload among labs based on regional needs or capacity.
* The addition of new laboratories to the referral network.
* A desire to clarify or expand the scope of testing for specific labs.
**5. Key Provisions / Changes:**
The primary change introduced by this amendment is the substitution of entries in TABLE 1 and TABLE 2 of the original notification S.O. 97(E).
* **Changes to TABLE 1 (Referral Labs and Geographical Jurisdiction):**
* The notification substitutes entries for several laboratories in Table 1, which specifies the names and addresses of referral labs along with their designated local areas/States/Union Territories. These changes involve the following:
* Reassignment of geographical jurisdiction for labs like National Food Laboratory, Kolkata, National Food Laboratory, Ghaziabad, Food Safety and Analytical Quality Control Laboratory, Mysore, State Public Health Laboratory, Pune, and National Food Laboratory, JNPT, Navi Mumbai.
* This ensures the laboratories attend to particular Local Areas or States or Union Territories.
* **Changes to TABLE 2 (Referral Labs and Scope of Testing):**
* The notification substitutes entries for several laboratories in Table 2, which specifies the names and addresses of referral labs along with their designated scope of testing. These changes involve the following:
* Amendment in the scope of testing for laboratories such as Indian Institute of Horticultural Research, Bangalore; Quality Evaluation Laboratory, Spices Board, Kochi; Quality Evaluation Laboratory, Spices Board, Guntur; Quality Evaluation Laboratory, Spices Board, Chennai; Quality Evaluation Laboratory, Spices Board, Navi Mumbai; Centre for Analysis and Learning in Milk and Milk Products, CALF, Anand; CSIR Indian Institute of Chemical Technology, Hyderabad; National Research Centre on Meat, Hyderabad; Food Testing Laboratory, Indian Institute of Food Processing Technology, Thanjavur; ICAR Central Institute of Fisheries Technology, Cochin; CSIR Indian Institute of Toxicology Research, Lucknow; National Referral Laboratory, ICAR National Research Centre for Grapes, Pune; Pesticide Formulation and Residue Analytical Centre, National Institute of Plant Health Management NIPHM, Hyderabad; Punjab Food Product Standards, Contaminants, Toxins, Biotechnology Incubator, Mohali; Centre for Food Research and Analysis CFRA, NIFTEM, Sonipat; National Referral Center for Milk Quality Safety, RCMQS, Karnal.
* This ensures the laboratories perform designated analysis of food.
* **Effect of the Changes:** These changes likely aim to optimize the distribution of testing responsibilities across different laboratories, aligning laboratory expertise with specific geographical regions or food product categories.
**6. Target Audience and Stakeholders:**
The primary target audience and stakeholders affected by this amendment include:
* **Food businesses and manufacturers:** Need to be aware of the designated referral labs for their region and product category to comply with testing requirements.
* **Food safety officers and regulators:** Need to understand the updated jurisdiction and scope of testing for each referral lab for enforcement purposes.
* **Referral food laboratories:** Directly affected by the changes in their geographical jurisdiction and scope of testing.
* **Consumers:** Ultimately benefit from the improved food safety testing and monitoring system.
**7. Implementation Aspects (Inferred):**
* **Responsible agency:** The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) is the responsible agency for implementing and enforcing the provisions of the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006, including this amendment.
* **Procedures:** Food businesses will likely need to update their testing protocols to reflect the changes in referral lab assignments. Regulators will need to adjust their inspection and enforcement activities accordingly.
* The notification does not specify specific timelines but implies immediate implementation upon publication in the Gazette of India.
**8. Expected Outcomes / Impact of Changes:**
The intended outcome of these changes is likely to:
* Improve the efficiency and effectiveness of food safety testing across India.
* Ensure that food businesses have access to appropriate and qualified referral laboratories for their specific testing needs.
* Strengthen the overall food safety monitoring and enforcement system.
* Facilitate accurate and reliable testing results to enhance consumer protection.
**9. Conclusion:**
The amendment to FSSAI notification S.O. 97(E) represents a refinement of the regulatory framework for referral food laboratories in India. By updating the designation, geographical jurisdiction, and scope of testing for these labs, the FSSAI aims to improve the efficiency, accuracy, and reliability of food safety testing, ultimately contributing to enhanced consumer protection and a safer food supply chain. This amendment is significant for food businesses, regulators, and consumers alike, requiring them to stay informed and adapt to the updated provisions.
