Science at the Authority
Science has an important role to play in the NSW Food Authority fulfilling its mission.
The Authority is an evidence-led organisation. This means it strives to ensure that all decisions are based on sound evidence and science.
With increasing complexity in food production, supply and consumption, it's what the public, industry and government both need and expect.
The Authority's scientists contribute to:
- monitoring and evaluating foods & processes
- understanding the risk of food business activities
- development of standards & regulations
- engaging with industry
- programs to inform consumers
- collaborative research, and
- issues management.
Survey program
Some of these activities are facilitated by the Authority's survey program.
Details on how the Authority plans and executes its surveys are included in the Survey program overview (pdf, 136KB).
