BRUSSELS, Sept. 19 (Xinhua) -- China and the European
Union (EU) signed on Tuesday two cooperation agreements on toy and food safety
in a bid to further boost bilateral trade.
The agreements were signed by Li Changjing, China's Minister of General
Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine and EU Health
and Consumer Protection Commissioner Markos Kyprianou.
"The agreement we have signed today with the Chinese
authorities is a significant step forward in ensuring consumer safety,"
Kyprianou said.
The "Roadmap for safer toys" outlines a strategy for
improving the safety of Chinese toys exported to the EU, focusing on training
and technical assistance, exchange of information between EU and Chinese
authorities and tracing, feedback and follow up mechanisms for dangerous
products.
Under the "Arrangement for the cooperation on joint
prevention of illegal action in the import and export of food," the two sides
will improve exchange of information on illegal activities detected during
routine pre-export checks or other controls, so as to prevent and deter such
illegal activity.
Contact points for both sides will be established for
the rapid communication of known relevant technical information concerning
potential illegal activities in food trade. Enditem
