Research On Food Safety Traceability Regulatory Policy

Food is one of the essential conditions of human survival, and human health, social progress and economic development are closely related to food safety. Along with increasing enhancement of national economic level, in recent ten years, food safety problems emerge in endlessly in China. This has been a major influence on people’s daily lives, and it causes food poisoning or life danger, and the deaths caused by food security are countless each year, which leads to consumers’serious doubts on whether the food is safe or not. Therefore, the government and enterprises should conduct the standardized production and supervision for the foods’raw materials procurement, processing, storage, logistics, sales and other links in order to provide consumers with an honest, transparent, and complete food safety query service. The establishment of food safety traceability supervision system from "production to consumption" is an important way. It is not only to carry out effective supervision on food safety, but also a common demand of food companies and consumers. Food safety, at the same time, is an crucial system of food safety all over the world. It is not mature and perfect for China’s food traceability regulatory system.The establishment and improvement of food safety traceability supervision system provide transparent and open information for consumers and producers concerning food production and circulation, which enables consumers to buy assured food. Meanwhile, when there are problem foods, we can also use effectively the traceability system to track and locate, which is convenient for us to identify problems and then solve them. The development of food safety traceability system in Guangdong not only improve the quality of our life, which ensure the need for food safety, but also meet the people’s right to choose and the right to know and promote the growth of the national economy, too. However, the present system in Guangdong exist such main problems as function staggered, the ambiguity of power and responsibility, standard lag, etc, leading to frequent problems of food safety in Guangdong, which need to be resolved in time.This paper adopts the methods of literature research, theoretical analysis and contrast analysis to analyze the relevant major factors of food safety traceability supervision system in Guangdong province, and finds out the existing problems in the process of the formation and implementation of traceability system in Guangdong province, and how these problems hinder the improvement of the traceability system. And it also analyzes how the EU provisional food safety traceability supervision system acquires effects and what experiences and lessons it brings to us.This paper is divided into five parts; firstly, Understanding on the basis of relative literatures abroad actuality of food safety traceability system, it expounds the background, significance, research status and method of the thesis. In the second part, the core concepts of this paper are defined, which elaborate the theoretical basis of the paper. This part in detail from the aspects of concept, characteristics, meaning, what is the regulation of food safety traceability system, traceability system have what important role. Thirdly, the paper analyzes the present situation of food safety traceability system in Guangdong, pointing out the existing problems and its causes. Next, to view the eu’s food safety traceability system related information, the paper reveals the major factors concerning the success of the European Union’s national food safety traceability system, illuminating experience and revelation to our country. Finally, the paper puts forward the countermeasures and suggestions for the construction of food safety traceability system in China.The innovation point of this article is that on the basis of imitating the advanced experience of food safety supervision system of developed countries, it puts forward the countermeasures of building food safety supervision system with Chinese characteristics. At the same time, it establishes the social public food safety supervision mechanism and puts forwards improvement countermeasures of food traceability supervision in Guangdong province. I put forward my own suggestions from the perspective of adhering to the scientific outlook on development, establishing the social public food safety supervision and participation mechanism, strengthening coordination and cooperation between departments, further improving the related legal system and speeding up the construction of food traceability system.Raising the level of food safety supervision in our country requires not only the government’s supervision power, but the cooperation of social forces. At the same time, the major food industries need to improve continually their moral level and the courage to take risks and solve the problems. In addition, we need to absorb and draw on the advanced technology and experience of the developed countries, perfecting our country’s food safety traceability system. Moreover, we need also to popularize the relevant scientific knowledge to the mass so that the entire food safety traceability regulatory system will fully play a positive role in the protection of people’s food safety.
