The Act is designed to consolidate and enhance existing food-related laws to address the evolving challenges of Singapore\u2019s food sector. The implementation of the Act will occur in phases, commencing in the second half of 2025 and concluding by 2028, allowing stakeholders adequate time to adapt to the new regulatory framework.<br \/>\n<strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Main Thrusts of the Food Safety and Security Act and Key Legal Considerations<\/span><\/strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The Food Safety and Security Act is founded on the following key principles<span>[1]<\/span>:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\"> <\/span><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Consolidation of Existing Food-Related Legislations<\/span><\/b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">: Prior to the Food Safety and Security Act, Singapore&#8217;s food-related legislations were dispersed across nine different statutes. Moving forward, the Food Safety and Security Act will provide a single comprehensive framework in order to streamline regulatory oversight and encourage innovation within the food sector.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\"> <\/span><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Enhanced Food Safety Measures<\/span><\/b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">: The Food Safety and Security Act will introduce stricter safety protocols to better protect consumers and to promote the development of the food industry. This includes mandatory record-keeping for importers, animal feed producers, and slaughterhouses to facilitate traceability and the swift recall of contaminated products. <\/span>\n<ul>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The Food Safety and Security Act enhances the regulatory framework by expanding offences to cover all stages of the food supply chain, regardless of commodity type or business activity, and by standardising penalties. For the most serious food-related offences, first-time corporate offenders face fines of up to $50,000, while individuals may be fined up to $25,000, jailed for up to 24 months, or both.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Recalcitrant offenders whose licenses are revoked due to fraud or multiple food safety lapses can be disqualified from holding new licenses of the same type for up to three years.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Strengthening Singapore\u2019s Food Supply Resilience: <\/span><\/b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The Food Safety and Security Act will expand the existing stockpiling measures (such as giving the Minister the power to declare essential food items or agri-food production inputs to be subject to stockpiling requirements if the need arises), enabling a more robust response to potential supply chain disruptions.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<ul><\/ul>\n<p><strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Impact on Stakeholders<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\"> <\/span><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Licensable Food Businesses<\/span><\/b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">: Under the Food Safety and Security Act, a person who intends to carry on a licensable food business (which means a food business in Singapore that falls within a class of retail food business or non\u2011retail food business that is specified in the First Schedule of the Food Safety and Security Act) must be appropriately licensed (or exempted). Depending on the licensable food business that the licensee is involved with, the licensee may be required to, inter alia, carry on the licensable food business in accordance with an accepted food control plan or farm management plan<span>[2]<\/span>, ensure its workers receive regular food safety training to stay updated on best practices, and\/or maintain records to enable swift tracing and have procedures in place for the recall of unsafe food<span>[3]<\/span>. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">A licensable food business as defined under the Food Safety and Security Act includes the following non-exhaustive examples<span>[4]<\/span>:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">a.

Non-Retail<\/span><\/b><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\">A food business that involves any primary production activity (save for excluded categories such as the raising of an animal which is not for sale).<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\">A food business that involves the manufacturing, processing or packing of meat or fish, or meat products or fish products.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\">A food business that involves the slaughtering of animals for meat, meat processing or other production of meat products.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\">A food business that conducts activities such as food manufacturing with the purpose of selling to other food businesses or exporting.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\">A food business engaged in storing meat or meat products, or fish or fish products for a fee or reward.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\">A food business that provides facilities, tools and equipment for hire to another food business for the purpose of selling food by retail or selling food to any other food business or for export.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\">A food business involving the of a commissary kitchen or centralised commercial kitchen.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\">A food business that consists wholly or substantially of a catering service, catering meals for passengers travelling on airlines or other passenger transport services.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ol><\/ol>\n<ul><\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\"> <\/span><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Animal Feed Producers<\/span><\/b><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">: <\/span><\/b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">To ensure food safety, businesses that manufacture animal feed<b> <\/b>will need to be appropriately licensed. Apart from the need to develop and implement a feed control plan, a holder of an animal feed production licence must also maintain detailed records to enable swift tracing and have procedures in place for the recall of any unsafe animal feed<span>[5]<\/span>.\u00a0 <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"> <\/span><\/span><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Users of Agricultural Pesticides<\/span><\/b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">: Farms that grow and supply fruits and vegetables for human consumption must use only registered pesticides to ensure food safety. Before applying these pesticides, they are required to engage certified pesticide operators that have been registered with the Singapore Food Agency.<\/span><span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\"> <\/span><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Traders (Importers, Exporters and Transhippers)<\/span><\/b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">: To uphold food integrity, a person must hold the relevant licences and\/or permits for the importing, exporting, and\/or transhipping of food items that are considered controlled items[6]. Additionally, a licensed food importer must maintain records to enable swift tracing and have procedures in place for the recall of unsafe food<span>[7]<\/span>. Besides controlled items, the Food Safety and Security Act also regulates the trade of prohibited food, which includes any food or brand of food that the Minister or any other written law (other than the Food Safety and Security Act) have prohibited from import.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\"> <\/span><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Rice Stockpilers and Agri-food supply chain stakeholders<\/span><\/b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">: To enhance food supply resilience, entities may be subject to a Minimum Stockholding Requirement (\u201c<b>MSR<\/b>\u201d) whereby they are required to stockpile essential food items or agri-food production inputs, with compliance checks in place. Rice importers, who currently stockpile under the Rice Stockpile Scheme, will continue to do so under the new MSR scheme. Additionally, individuals or businesses closely linked to the agri-food supply chain may be required to provide information within a reasonable specified period to the Singapore Food Agency when necessary<span>[8]<\/span>. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Phased Implementation Timeline<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The Food Safety and Security Act is set to be implemented in phases through 2028, introducing several key changes with significant legal implications<span>[9]<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\"> <\/span><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Second Half of 2025:<\/span><\/b><span lang=\"EN-GB\"> Initial provisions will come into effect, focusing on \u201cdefined foods<span>[10]<\/span>\u201d and non-packaged drinking water. <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\"> <\/span><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">By 2028:<\/span><\/b><span lang=\"EN-GB\"> Full implementation of all Food Safety and Security Act provisions is expected, allowing industries adequate time to adapt to the new regulations.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Conclusion<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The Food Safety and Security Act represents a pivotal advancement in Singapore&#8217;s approach to managing food safety and security.
