As part of a comprehensive, multi-year regulatory modernization process, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has initiated the renewal of the federal Feeds Regulations (Regulations) as one of several priorities identified for modernization.

The CFIA is now seeking public comments on the proposal Maximum Nutrients Values in Fish Feeds. The proposal forms part of the suite of documents CFIA will put forward for incorporation by reference in the modernized Feeds Regulations, thus providing greater flexibility in amending the document as required. 

The goal of renewing the Regulations is to develop a modernized risk- and outcome-based regulatory framework for feeds which: 

  • safeguards feeds and the food production continuum; 
  • attains the most effective and efficient balance between fair and competitive trade in the market; and 
  • minimizes regulatory burden.
