Message definition (Germany:Germany)
The BMEL is the central competent authority (CCA) for EU legislation in the field of food and feed safety. E.g. with regard to maximum residue levels and contaminants in food, food contact materials and articels, hygiene and GMOSs in food and feed. At national level the BMEL is the CCA responsible for legislation in the field of food and feed safety.

In addition to food safety, the BfR is also responsible for risk assessments in the area of safety of consumer products, cosmetics, biocides and chemicals (REACH). The BfR also collects and evaluates notifications of intoxication caused by chemicals.
