New Appointments to FSANZ Announced
One new appointment and two extended appointments to the board of Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) were announced today by the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister for Health and Ageing, Senator Brett Mason.
Senator Mason said the expertise and experience of the new and extended appointees would ensure that public health, science and technology, and consumer affairs continued to be strongly represented on the FSANZ board.
"Dr Pamela Williams is a new appointment to the board,'' Senator Mason said.
"As a former lecturer on consumer rights she will bring considerable knowledge of this field and Australian consumer-affairs policy to the board.
"Dr Laurence Eyres and Associate Professor Peter Williams have been re-appointed for three years and four years respectively. Both members have made a valuable contribution to date and their reappointment will help maintain an appropriate balance of skills and experience on the board.
"These appointments have been made after consultation with the Australia and New Zealand Food Regulation Ministerial Council,'' he said.
FSANZ is the food regulatory authority in Australia and New Zealand.
Biographical details of the three appointees is attached.
