FSA published its Forward Science and Evidence Plan 2011
The Food Standards Agency (FSA) outlines along this Plan the priority science and evidence activities for the coming year, including potential areas for research funding and workshops that will help develop the Agency’s evidence base. The Forward Evidence Plan has been developed using the prioritisation process outlined in the Agency’s Science and Evidence Strategy.
The aims of publishing are four fold:
- To inform the Agency’s stakeholders and help identify whether they are aware of any work either completed or on-going in these areas which we should take into account to help us focus our final requirements before issue;
- To draw to the attention of other funders to see if there are areas on which we could work more collaboratively on these or future needs;
- To provide early notice of possible tender opportunities to potential contractors, to stimulate interest;
- To also seek comments and suggestions on how best to progress some of the strategic science challenges facing the Agency.
The first calls for research arising from this plan are expected in the next few weeks.
