Draft Regulation of the Head of the National Agency of Drug and Food Control of the Republic of Indonesia on the Maximum Level of Heavy Metal Contaminant in Processed Food |
| Summary |
The maximum level requirement for microbiological and chemical contaminants in food has previously been regulated in the Regulation of the Head of NADFC No. HK.00.06.1.52.4011 in 2009. Due to developments in food science and technology, and also the amendment of regulations by other countries regarding the maximum level of heavy metal contaminant requirements, NADFC has now finished amending the requirements of heavy metal contaminants in Annex II of the 2009 regulation. The NADFC will revoke Annex II of the 2009 regulation and replace it with the draft regulation of the Head of NADFC of Indonesia on the Maximum Level of Heavy Metal Contaminant in Processed Food.
This regulation sets out the maximum levels of specified heavy metals, i.e. arsenic, cadmium, mercury, lead and tin, in processed food by food category.
Once this new regulation is issued, the previous 2009 regulation (Regulation of the Head of NADFC No. HK.00.06.1.52.4011) regarding the requirements of heavy metal contaminants in processed food is declared to be invalid.
This addendum concerns a: Modification of content and/or scope of previously notified draft regulation
