This presentation will address how policy is developed for food processing. The principles underlying the Hazzard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) approach and underlying theory are explained in the context of food safety measures. These seven principles, with roots in Space Age technology, provide a state of the art to food safety covering foods such as seafood, juice and dairy products. Examples of how outbreaks of food borne illness drive policy illustrate the policy development process.
