Important information about the Consultants List

These lists have been cited by the Department of Health as a source of appropriately-qualified experts in food safety assessment and are recommended by the Chartered Institution of Environmental Health to its members, for example, in cases where, under the Food Safety Act, an EHO requires specialist or expert support in an assessment or inspection. IFST Fellowship and Membership are recognised qualifications for Food Examiners (subject to appropriate experience) under the Food Safety (Sampling and Qualifications) Regulations 1990.

The information shown against the name of each member listed has been supplied for this purpose by that member. It is emphasized that where members undertake work resulting from the appearance of their names on this list, they do so entirely in their individual capacities, negotiating their own terms and fees, and in no sense represent IFST. IFST cannot accept any responsibility or liability.

Please note that they do not provide free advice or information to the media, students or other inquirers. Payment will be required for any advice or information sought.
