A stakeholder workshop on the re-evaluation programme for food additives was organised by EFSA in Brussels on 28 April 2014. The overall objective of the workshop was to share experience acquired by EFSA and stakeholders since the launch of the re-evaluation programme in 2010; to present the tentative work programme 2014-2016 and to engage with all interested parties, particularly interested business operators, to further enhance co-operation and improve data submission during the re-evaluation process of food additives.
