## Section 1: Division Of Responsibility For Food And Feed Law In The Uk

 
Feed and food safety and standards are devolved matters in the UK.  The FSA has responsibility at central Government level for the main body of feed and food safety law in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, with dedicated offices working to the relevant Parliaments in England and Wales and to the Northern Ireland Assembly.   
Food Standards Scotland (FSS) was established 1 April 2015 as the national food body for Scotland, with responsibility for those central Government functions previously carried out by the FSA in Scotland.  .FSS publish a Scotland Food & Feed Law Guide on their website https://www.foodstandards.gov.scot/publications-and-research/publications/scottish-food-and-feed-law-guide Following machinery of government changes introduced in 2010, FSA responsibilities for food law across England Wales and Northern Ireland is no longer harmonised.    

- 
In England, Defra is responsible for food labelling, other than for matters of food safety such as 'Use By' dates and allergens labelling etc.  The Department of Health has central government responsibility for nutrition-related food legislation in England **(Table 1)**.   
- 
In **Wales**, the FSA retains responsibility for general food labelling.  The Welsh Government is Responsible for nutrition-related food legislation **(Table 2)**. 
- 
In **Northern Ireland** the FSA retains responsibility for general food labelling and nutrition-related food legislation **(Table 3)**.
