The Hon Allan Rock. Minister of Health Canada, stated that “Health Canada conducts atherough safety assessment of each biotech- nology-derived food before it enters the marketplace. Health Canada and the Cana» dian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) share the responsibility for federal food labeling policies in Canada, Health Canada is respon- sible for setting food labeling policies with respect to health and safety matters (is. nutri7 tional content. allergens. special dietary needs, etc). This applies to all foods, includâ€" ing foods derived through biotechnology. The CFIA is responsible for the develop- ment of non-health and safety food labeling regulations and policies, “Specifically. to protecting consumers from misrepresenta.‘ tion and fraud with respect to food labeling and for prescribing basic food labeling and advertising requirements applicable to all foods (is. food ingredients and compoâ€" ncnts.,.)."
