It works to implement the Federal Law No. 10 of 2015 on the safety of food, which applies to all establishments licensed to trade food or feed, and consignments coming to the country or passing through its territory.
The law also applies in all stages of the food chain from primary production through processing until it reaches to the consumer. The ministry is responsible for standardizing and supervising food safety procedures in cooperation with concerned local food authorities.
