They seek to (a) to protect the health of the public from unsafe food; (b) to provide food that is fit for purpose; (c) to protect consumers from deception and food of unacceptable and poor quality, by establishing minimum standards for food products. The Codex Alimentarius is adopted and forms part of these regulations, together with any future amendments made to the Codex Alimentarius from time to time by the Commission. If there is a conflict between these Regulations and any provision of the Codex Alimentarius, these Regulations prevail. The maximum levels of pesticide or veterinary drugs residues in food must not exceed the limits specified by the Codex. The Regulations also provide with respect to, among other things, for food additives and nutrients, specification of high-risk food or food of regulatory interest, notification of intent to import such food, importation of food in general, packaging and labelling, health claims, conformity with prescribed standards for specific foods, food hygiene standards.
