What is FLEP?

Origin

The EC-Symposium on "Food Control" in Rome in 1989 identified the need to a create a forum which would allow representatives of European food control authorities to meet, exchange information, address inconsistencies and explore practical enforcement difficulties. The Dutch Inspectorate for Health Protection responded to this challenge by inviting enforcement directors from other Member States to a meeting in the Hague in October 1990. During this meeting the delegates agreed to establish an informal European Forum of Food Law Enforcement Practitioners (FLEP).

FLEP's aims

FLEP is an informal grouping of European food law enforcement practitioners that seeks to share information, learn from the experience of colleagues and build up knowledge of good practice.
