Speaking at a conference on food safety entitled "What Do We Wat?", Bogosalvljevic-Boskovic said that we are often witnesses of media misinformation about the safety and quality of food in Serbia.
Serbia is in the initial stage of the accession negotiations with the EU and it is necessary to harmonise the national legislation with the EU acquis in the field of food safety too, the Minister said.
She explained that such an approach aims to provide a high level of food safety, animal and plant health and animal welfare through the operation of the farm-to-fork process, with the appropriate control of risk management and ensuring the effective functioning of the system on the internal market.
