Hogan Lovells 2024 Election Impact and Congressional Outlook Report
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently announced it will be holding a full-day public meeting on September 27, 2019, to address “Horizontal Approaches to Food Standards of Identity Modernization.”
As explained in more detail below, FDA’s “horizontal” approach to standards reform would look at amending wide groups of standards rather than evaluating standards on a case-by-case basis. Requests to make oral comments are due by September 12th and in-person attendees should register by September 20th. Written comments are due by November 12, 2019, and can be submitted to FDA docket number FDA-2018-N-2381-1371.
