Meeting Sernapesca-FDA focused on crystal violet case

Christian Pérez The Food and Drug Administration representatives explained that -as part of their protocols, the FDA first informs the company involved and subsequently to the local authorities. Moreover, the FDA establishes that after a safety alert like the one involving Marine Harvest Chile, their following five shipments will be subjected to specific controls, while the company has to prepare a contingency plan which indicates the measures and actions taken to solve the problem. Finally, Cecilia Solís invited the FDA representatives to generate a cooperation agreement between the FDA and Sernapesca, in order to facilitate the information exchange among both agencies.
