Genetically Modified Food Surveillance

Each year, the FSAI carries out routine monitoring of the food supply in Ireland to ensure only authorised GM ingredients are on the market and that they are labelled appropriately.

Further information on genetically modified food and feed and how it is regulated in the EU can be viewed on the EU Commission's website.

The Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) of the United Nations hosts an electronic platform that provides information on all foods derived from GM plants and authorised following safety assessment in accordance with Codex guidelines.
