Amharc ar fhreagra482. Deputy Fionntán Ó Súilleabháin asked the Minister for Health the reason for the apparent increase in food recalls from the market to date in 2026 compared with previous years; whether her Department is examining the causes of this increase and engaging with the Food Safety Authority of Ireland; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [54585/26]
Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 481 and 482 together.
The Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) has overall responsibility for the enforcement of food law in Ireland which includes food safety recalls; therefore, as these are operational matters, I have asked the FSAI to reply directly to the Deputy.
