The Hungarian Food Safety Office (HFSO) operated as the Hungarian partner institution of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) from 2003 to 2012 in conformity with the EU requirements.
 One of its priority was to assess the health risks derived from food and indirectly from feed, to liaise with international and Hungarian authorities, and to communicate with the public on food safety issues.
 From 2012, these tasks are performed by the National Food Chain Safety Office, which was established by the integration of the Central Agricultural Office and HFSO.
Food safety is a scientific discipline describing handling, preparation, and storage of food in ways that prevent foodborne illness.
 This includes a number of routines that should be followed to avoid potential health hazards.
 In this way food safety often overlaps with food defense to prevent harm to consumers.
 The tracks within this line of thought are safety between industry and the market and then between the market and the consumer.
 In considering industry to market practices, food safety considerations include the origins of food including the practices relating to food labeling, food hygiene, food additives and pesticide residues, as well as policies on biotechnology and food and guidelines for the management of governmental import and export inspection and certification systems for foods.
 In considering market to consumer practices, the usual thought is that food ought to be safe in the market and the concern is safe delivery and preparation of the food for the consumer.
Food Safety News is a news and campaigning website focusing on food safety.
 It was founded in 2009 by Bill Marler, a lawyer and food safety advocate.
 Marler is the Managing Partner of Marler Clark, a Seattle, Washington, law firm that specializes in foodborne illness cases.
 He said that "Food Safety News" was created to "fill a void" left by print and broadcast media as budgetary constraints led to "dedicated reporters on the food, health and safety beats... being reassigned or seeing their positions disappear altogether."
 The site provides daily news coverage of "foodborne illness outbreaks and investigations, food recalls, and how food safety fits into the local food movement."
Food safety in China is a growing concern relating to agriculture.
 China's principal crops are rice, corn, wheat, soybeans, and cotton in addition to apples and other fruits and vegetables.
 China's principal livestock products include pork, beef, dairy, and eggs.
 The Chinese government oversees agricultural production as well as the manufacture of food packaging, containers, chemical additives, drug production, and business regulation.
 In recent years, the Chinese government attempted to consolidate food safety regulation with the creation of the State Food and Drug Administration of China in 2003; officials have also been under increasing public and international pressure to solve food safety problems.
 Chinese Vice Premier Li Keqiang said, "Food is essential, and safety should be a top priority.
 Food safety is closely related to people's lives and health and economic development and social harmony," at a State Council meeting in Beijing.
A food safety risk analysis is essential not only to produce or manufacture high quality goods and products to ensure safety and protect public health, but also to comply with international and national standards and market regulations.
 With risk analyses food safety systems can be strengthened and food-borne illnesses can be reduced.
 Food safety risk analyses focus on major safety concerns in manufacturing premises—not every safety issue requires a formal risk analysis.
 Sometimes, especially for complex or controversial analyses, regular staff is supported by independent consultants.
The Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food Safety (VKM), (Norwegian: "Vitenskapskomiteen for mattrygghet" ), conduct open, independent, scientific risk assessments regarding food safety, animal health, plant health, animal welfare and cosmetics on request from the Norwegian Food Safety Authority.
 VKM also carries out risk assessments on genetically modified organisms on request from the Norwegian Environment Agency.
 The scientific committee itself is also free to take initiative to carry out risk assessments.
 The risk assessments are used by the Norwegian Food Safety Authority and the Norwegian Environment Agency when giving advice to Norwegian ministries, and when Norwegian Food Safety Authority is developing new laws and regulations.
