    For our latest episode we were delighted to be joined by Professor Chris Elliott, founder of the Institute for Global Food Security at Queen’s University Belfast and a leading authority on food safety, integrity and fraud.

    On the 10th anniversary of the horsemeat scandal Chris reveals the extent to which the recommendations made in his eponymous independent review have been adopted by businesses and government, and how an emerging cocktail of risks means that foodservice operators need to be on high alert to guard against the risk of fraud. We also discuss his role advising the Foundation Earth environmental scoring system for food products.
