- Food Safety Promotion Board
safefood - The Food Safety Promotion Board (Irish: biaslán - An Bord um Chur Chun Cinn Sabháilteachta Bia) is one of the six originally planned cross border/All Ireland bodies set up following the Good Friday Agreement. Its functions are proscribed in law (British Irish Agreement Act 1999, annex I, part 2) [http://www.oireachtas.ie/documents/bills28/acts/1999/a199.pdf] and are repeated on its website [www.safefoodonline.com] , [http://www.safefood.eu] . Even though its functions are legally defined, because they are necessarily repeated on its website, the description of the functions here has to be varied from that defined by law so as to avoid copyright violations (Check its website or the Annex to the British Irish Agreement Act 1999 for the exact functions). In general its function is the All Ireland promotion of food safety in conjunction with the existing agencies on the island of Ireland, the Food Safety Authority of Ireland [http://www.fsai.ie] and its Northern counterpart.
