The project is part of EFSA's continuing commitment to openness and addresses recommendations made by an independent evaluation report of the Authority's performance to further enhance transparency in its decision-making processes. EFSA's Science Strategy also highlights the importance of the Authority playing a leading role in making relevant scientific data more accessible to all interested parties.
EFSA Executive Director Catherine Geslain-Lanéelle said: "Risk assessment is an evolving science and EFSA is always willing to review its past work should new robust science bring a new perspective to any of the Authority's previous findings. With the launch of today's initiative that aims to make data used in risk assessment publicly available, EFSA will help scientists from different areas of expertise develop research that can ultimately enrich academic literature and provide valuable new perspectives that can be included in risk assessments. This will make the conclusions of risk assessments even stronger when ensuring public health protection and further build confidence in EFSA's work."
The transparency initiative builds on a range of measures already undertaken by EFSA to increase understanding, strengthen scrutiny and build confidence in its work. These include a landmark opinion by its Scientific Committee on transparency in risk assessment and subsequent initiatives such as publishing the full list of scientific studies and previously unpublished data on aspartame during formulation of the Authority's current draft opinion. EFSA has also opened up its Scientific Committee and Panel meetings to external observers to promote better understanding of how scientific risk assessment is carried out.
