Yu-Mei Chiang, Deputy Director of Food and Drug Administration, responded and reported as the governmental representative. Deputy Director Jiang pointed out that each time the event breaks out it has contributed to the idea of amending the law. The latest news is that it is going to be part of "Act Governing Food Safety and Sanitation," according to which, a "food safety protection fund" is established.

The draft of "food risk assessment advisory committee" has been drawn up and announced, requiring civil society to participate and nominate appropriate candidates.

In fact, in addition to risk assessment experts, experts recommended by civil society should also be included in risk communication. It widens the scope of communication, involving in consumers and their ethics and values into discussion. The public perception is not something scientific expert committee can resolve.
