to protect the public health, House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Billy
Tauzin (R-LA) and Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee Chairman James
Greenwood (R-PA) today sent a letter to Food and Drug Administration
Commissioner Mark McClellan outlining the Committee's ongoing examination of the
adequacy of FDA's import controls. Specifically, the examination is focusing on
whether or not the FDA is taking the necessary steps to adopt a risk-based
approach to surveillance screening inspections of food imports.
