SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Codex Alimentarius Commission
was established in 1963 by two United
Nations organizations, the Food and
Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the
World Health Organization (WHO).
Through adoption of food standards,
codes of practice, and other guidelines
developed by its committees, and by
promoting their adoption and
implementation by governments, Codex
seeks to protect the health of consumers
and ensure fair practices in the food
trade.
The Terms of Reference of the Codex
Committee on Food Additives (CCFA)
are:
(a) to establish or endorse permitted
maximum levels for individual food
additives;
(b) to prepare priority lists of food
additives for risk assessment by the
Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on
Food Additives;
(c) to assign functional classes to
individual food additives;
(d) to recommend specifications of
identity and purity for food additives for
adoption by the Commission;
(e) to consider methods of analysis for
the determination of additives in food;
and
(f) to consider and elaborate standards
or codes for related subjects such as the
labelling of food additives when sold as
such.
The CCFA is hosted by China. The
United States attends the CCFA as a
member country of Codex.
Issues To Be Discussed at the Public
Meeting
The following items on the agenda for
the 54th Session of the CCFA will be
discussed during the public meeting:
• Matters Referred by the Codex
Alimentarius Commission and other
subsidiary bodies
• Matters of Interest arising from FAO/
WHO and from the 96th and 97th
