Слайд 4

A New Vocabulary Food security Food defence Food fraud TACCP The food sector needs to get up to speed

Слайд 5

A New Industry is Emerging Provenance authentication DNA testing Isotope testing Food fraud consultants TACCP experts Supplier audit services It comes at a cost

Слайд 6

Stop: What about HACCP? Improve food safety Put responsibility on industry Reduce end testing Allow positive release Universally accepted Why didn’t HACCP prevent this?

Слайд 7

Key HACCP Factors Reliance on ‘due diligence’ Supply chain ‘cascade’ Scope of application ‘Internal’ processes ‘Tick box’ culture Focus on paperwork Lack of evidence approach None of this is caused by the HACCP approach

Слайд 8

Elliott on HACCP? Recc: 9. “Education and advice is required on the prevention and identification of food crimes. My reference is for advice to be given in a format already familiar to the food industry, such as that expressed in terms of critical control points for hygiene in a food safety management system (the HACCP approach).” This indicates an integrated approach

Слайд 9

Food Fraud HACCP Scope Each level of supply chain Including Import agents Transport Storage Must cover entire supply chain Difficult to co-ordinate / monitor Sharing of information is key, few are willing

Слайд 10

Typical Supply Chain: UK Beef Shorter supply chains are easier to manage Issues Assurance Welfare Transport Issues Assurance Licensing Storage Hygiene Contamination Labeling Issues Assurance, e.g. Red Tractor Husbandry GMO Provenance Transport Issues Assurance Licensing Welfare Carcass inspection Hygiene Contamination Labeling Quality Provenance Storage Hygiene Contamination Issues Farm Market Abattoir Cutting Restaurant

The Food Fraud Iceberg Food fraud is pandemic Fish Cereals Alcohol Honey Olive Oil Packaging ...and so on.... Horse dressed as beef

Слайд 14

What is the solution? Its a LONG list implemented at differing levels Elliott Report Detection Enforcement Intelligence Inter Agency Communications Transparency Training Testing HACCP Approach

Слайд 15

FDF Five Point Plan A Sensible Approach Map Your Supply Chain Identify Impacts, Risks, Opportunities Assess and Prioritise Findings Create Action Plan Implement, Track ,Review, Communicate http://www.fdf.org.uk/

Слайд 16

What Can We Do Now? Solutions must be practical, feasible and affordable Food fraud training Application of HACCP Visibility of assurance Whole chain traceability Building trusted supply chains Earned recognition

Слайд 17

Food Fraud Training Generate awareness and embed best practice What is it? How to identify it How to control it Managing suppliers Risk monitoring

Слайд 18

Application of HACCP HACCP is a transferable skill Supply Chain Risk Identification Scope of Hazards Where are the CCPs? How do you control them? How to ‘measure’ success?

Слайд 19

Application of HACCP HACCP is a transferable skill It’s a Scope problem Start to end of chain Hazard types Control measures ‘Critical limits’ Monitoring Corrective Action

Слайд 20

Terms of Reference HACCP is a transferable skill Scope: Entire supply chain Hazard Types: Species substitution, dilution, authenticity Intended use: Consumer consumption Team expertise: HACCP, supply chain knowledge, buyers Its a simple modification of HACCP thinking.

Слайд 21

Process Flow HACCP is a transferable skill Process Flow – Supply Chain Map Shorter supply chains are easier to manage Issues Assurance Welfare Transport Issues Assurance Licensing Storage Hygiene Contamination Labeling Issues Assurance, e.g. Red Tractor Husbandry GMO Provenance Transport Issues Assurance Licensing Welfare Carcass inspection Hygiene Contamination Labeling Quality Provenance Storage Hygiene Contamination Issues Farm Market Abattoir Cutting Restaurant

Слайд 22

‘Hazard Analysis’ HACCP is a transferable skill Hazard: Control Measure: CCP Status: Critical Limits: Monitoring: Corrective Action: Verification: Validation: Implementation: Species substitution Assured supplier status Subject to Risk Assessment <1% non bovine DNA Check supplier on order Use alternative supplier Random sampling, third party audit Review results, research controls Directors, buyers, food safety, quality

Слайд 23

Visibility of Assurance Assurance standards need better food fraud focus Suppliers at all levels ‘Cascading assurance’ concept ‘Custody Chain’ approach Real time monitoring and alerts Requires: Inter-assurance scheme sharing Retailer demand Regulatory demand

Слайд 24

Whole Chain Traceability The sector still largely operates in the dark ages on traceability Scope currently introspective Major gap in industry infrastructure Paper based Error prone Time consuming

Слайд 25

Trusted Supply Chains Tools are available for most of this, more on the way Mapping the supply chain Supplier assessment Assurance visibility Ongoing monitoring Food fraud trends

Слайд 26

Earned Recognition Trust begins with sharing information Urgently needed at industry level Regulatory Assurance Consumer Can help drive higher standards Unannounced audits / inspections Sharing of operational information

Слайд 27

Investment in Supported Enforcement Local authorities have massive potential to help the sector improve Resources – paid inspections? Experienced Professionals Focused expertise Service ethos – paid?

Слайд 28

What We Don’t Need Responsible businesses don't want the additional cost Massive End Product Testing More Regulation More Audits & Inspections More Paperwork

Слайд 29

Summary The sector does not need to wait The information exists The techniques exist Tools are available Assurance is available What’s required is Application Effort Diligence EXECUTIVESUMMARY
