China to set up food and drug agency after safety scandals
NPC poised to follow US example and approve a single agency for food and drug regulation to protect health and restore consumer confidence
One of the food safety scandals involves baby formula laced with melamine, which led to illness and kidney problems in 300,000 infants and six deaths.
Beijing will create a single agency to deal with food and drug regulation after recent scandals involving everything from tainted milk to recycled "gutter" oil, sources revealed.
