The Food and Drug Administration on Nov. 5 issued a new guidance document outlining its mandatory recall authority under the Food Safety Modernization Act. The guidance includes a series of questions and answers on the basis for the relatively new authority, the process followed, what foods may be subject to mandatory recalls and how FDA determines whether a recall is necessary. Under FSMA, the “responsible party” for carrying out a mandatory recall is the food facility required to register with FDA that manufactured, processed, packed or held the food. FDA will give facilities a chance to conduct a voluntary recall before it exercises its mandatory recall authority, the agency said.
