About this statute

Livsmedelssäkerhetsverket is established for oversight and investigation of food, agricultural production inputs, animal health and welfare, and plant health, and it falls under the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry. The agency must carry out specified tasks within its area of responsibility, including supervision, risk management, research, reference laboratory work, information, advice, training, and international cooperation. The Director General leads the agency, decides the matters assigned to it unless another official is designated, and establishes the agency’s rules of procedure. The agency’s work order determines the agency’s offices and regional units. Verket får tillsätta rådgivande organ och kalla sakkunniga till dem för att stödja samarbetet med sina intressentgrupper.
