Obama signs FSMA into Law
Title
Obama signs FSMA into Law
Description
Obama signs FSMA into Law. The law grants the FDA a number of new powers, including mandatory recall authority, which the agency has sought for many years. The FSMA requires the FDA to undertake more than a dozen rulemakings and issue at least 10 guidance documents, as well as a host of reports, plans, strategies, standards, notices, and other tasks. The new law allows for administrative detention based on reason to believe that the food item has been misbranded or adulterated and thus violates a legal standard for the product.
