The specific objectives of this project are:

• Provide training to competent authority officials to reach a common understanding of the EU legislation on import controls of certain feed and food of non-animal origin.

• To spread knowledge and best practices on increased level of official controls on certain feed and food of non-animal origin coming in from third countries, in order to increase the level of expertise with regards to food safety issues concerning import of certain feed and food of non-animal origin.

• To harmonise import controls of certain feed and food of non-animal origin to avoid the exposure of the European consumer to excessively high levels of hazardous compounds such as mycotoxins (aflatoxin B1, a very carcinogenic compound) or residues of pesticides (that might exceed the Acute Reference Dose when consumed) or microbiological contamination (e.g. salmonella).
