Food Law
​Enforcement

Picture
On the 27th of March 2018 Antonia Corini defended her PhD thesis Food Law Enforcement in the EU. Public Powers and Private schemes to deal with Food Law infringements at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Piacenza (Italy). She received the additional certification of Doctor Europaeus. The PhD was supervised by Dino Guido Rinoldi and Fausto Capelli as promotors and me as co-promotor.

The thesis research addresses enforcement of EU food law. The analysis starts from EU Food Law’s central objectives and basic tools; its historical development and the issues it has aimed to face. Food Law Enforcement is analysed by examining food control systems in the European Union and their implementation by food business operators as well as by the Competent Authorities in two Member States (Italy and The Netherlands). Cases are scrutinised where problems in enforcement or weaknesses of the system have come to light in dealing with various possible violations which concern food. The dissertation aims to show these shortcomings of the legal system and to contribute to solving them by developing a theoretical concept: that of behavioural infringements due to the human factor and of their impact on consumer economic interests. The thesis, therefore, focuses on the most suitable instruments in dealing with these infringements by examining the newly adopted legislation and by looking at what can be learned from different approaches chosen in the two member states studied, including combining public powers and activities with private schemes.
