[Draft Amendment to the Food Safety Law Open for Public Comment, Involving AI Regulation, etc.]
According to a report by Jinse Finance, on October 10, the State Administration for Market Regulation drafted the "Food Safety Law of the People's Republic of China (Draft Amendment for Public Comment)" and opened it to public feedback. The main revisions include five aspects:
1. Strengthening intelligent regulation. Promoting the application of "Internet + Artificial Intelligence" in regulation, specifying that food production and operation enterprises must install monitoring equipment at critical risk points in food production and operation.
2. Reinforcing primary responsibility. Requiring food production and operation enterprises, as well as online food trading platform operators, to appoint food safety directors and food safety officers as stipulated, clarify job responsibilities, and enhance training and assessments.
3. Enhancing regulation in key areas. Adding a special section on "School Food Safety," establishing a principal (or kindergarten director) accountability system, and implementing a system for accompanying meals in centralized dining at primary and secondary schools and kindergartens.
4. Optimizing the food safety management system. Expanding the scope of food safety risk monitoring to include food additives, food-related products, and more.
5. Improving the legal liability system. Categorizing differentiated penalty ranges based on types of violations; strictly enforcing "penalties to individuals," and imposing penalties on responsible personnel for intentional violations, egregious conduct, or actions causing severe consequences.
