The risk ranking is based on the best current knowledge and data. Such rankings are dynamic, with their evolution reflecting increasing knowledge about the hazards and the consumer’s exposure to them. For example, the introduction of new technologies, modified production practices and changes in management strategies may influence the need to review the rankings.
FSANZ will maintain a watching brief of the scientific literature and international activities, for example, Codex Alimentarius, which may impact on the risk ranking. Where significant data gaps impacting upon the risk ranking process are filled by the results of ongoing scientific studies and surveys of the prevalence and levels of food safety hazards in seafood in Australia, the robustness of the risk rankings can be better assessed and the rankings may be further refined.
