加拿大食品檢驗署將在全國范圍內(nèi)建立專業(yè)技術中心

    食品伙伴網(wǎng)訊  據(jù)加拿大食品檢驗署（CFIA）消息，1月7日加拿大農(nóng)業(yè)部長李熙杰（Gerry Ritz）表示，加拿大食品檢驗署（CFIA）將在全國建立16處專業(yè)技術中心，將更加優(yōu)質(zhì)、始終如一的為相關行業(yè)和CFIA檢驗員提供信息和建議。

        李熙杰稱，專業(yè)技術中心將匯聚行業(yè)專家，通過統(tǒng)一的途徑，提高CFIA效率，為行業(yè)、CFIA檢驗員和加拿大民眾提供更加優(yōu)質(zhì)和統(tǒng)一的服務。此外，中心將致力于匯聚某些領域的學術和省級專家，以促進專家和促進組織間的合作。

        這16處技術中心有望在幾年內(nèi)建成，建成后將有助于聯(lián)合眾多項目專家。此舉不僅可以創(chuàng)建一個可提供指導和專家建議的高效系統(tǒng)，還可加強機構(gòu)內(nèi)政策和項目的制定人員與執(zhí)行人員之間的聯(lián)系。加拿大此舉旨在加強與利益相關者間的互動，最終促進行業(yè)了解并遵守政府法規(guī)。保證行業(yè)整體符合加拿大食品安全法的要求。

        技術中心將遍布加拿大全國，在選擇位置時參考以下因素：（1）周邊地區(qū)相關行業(yè)的密集程度；（2）靠近行業(yè)組織；（3）靠近領域內(nèi)的省級專家；（4）靠近行業(yè)內(nèi)的學術專家；（5）相關項目參與人員的密集程度。

    Canadian Food Inspection Agency Provides Industry with Better Access to Expert Advice

    January 7, 2013, Saskatoon: Today, Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz announced that the Canadian Food Inspection Agency （CFIA） will be creating sixteen targeted Centres of Expertise across Canada to provide industry and CFIA inspectors with better, more consistent access to information and advice.

    "These Centres of Expertise will pool expertise and make it available through a single window, making the CFIA more efficient and giving industry, CFIA inspectors and Canadians better, more consistent service," said Minister Ritz. "In addition, locations will be near both academic and provincial experts in a particular field to leverage expertise and collaboration among organizations."

    The sixteen Centres, expected to be implemented over the next few years, will consolidate and co-locate expertise for specific programs. Not only will this create a more efficient system for providing guidance and expert advice, it will also provide a stronger link between the people in the Agency who design policy and programs and the staff who deliver them.
