Читать книгу Food Regulation - Neal D. Fortin - Страница 74

Regulations are promulgated by federal agencies to implement and interpret the statutes that are passed by Congress. Regulations are codified in the C.F.R. Regulations typically have the same or similar title number as their corresponding enabling statute in the U.S.C. For example, the regulations which have been promulgated to interpret and implement Title 21 of the U.S.C. are, for the most part, located in Title 21 of the C.F.R.

Regulations are first published in the Federal Register to order to comply with the requirement for notice and comment of the Administration Procedure Act. Titles 7, 9, and 21 contain most of the laws regulating foods. However, Titles 5, 15, 16, 19, 27, 42, and 49 contain other matters that may relate to food in a less direct manner.
