Abstract

The EU experience is one of the best foreign practices in the constructing and functioning of the public administration in the field of food safety. In particular, the food safety control and surveillance system is based on the concept «from farm to fork». The food safety control and surveillance system is a key factor of functioning of the single EU market, where the issues of ensuring safe trade in food products, including animals and plants are at the forefront. This article describes foreign food safety control and surveillance system, including veterinary and phytosanitary safety, that is based on the EU experience at the supranational level. In particular, the analysis of the EU food law was carried out on the following aspects: legal regulation and institutional structure. The article also discusses the fundamental principles of the EU food safety control system. In general, it was revealed that the EU food safety policy is focused on four key areas: food hygiene, animal health, plant health, and residues of harmful substances. Animal feeds are also regulated by the EU basic food safety law. Based on the results of the analysis, there are drawn conclusions and recommendations that can be used to improve the effectiveness of public administration of food safety control system in Kazakhstan.
