The call is part of EFSA’s Stakeholder Engagement Approach, under which discussion groups act as ‘learning systems’ that allow the Authority to capitalise on industry knowledge in specific areas.
As a participant in the discussion groups, you will have the opportunity to attend working group meetings, either in person or via teleconference, with EFSA experts and give your comments on the documents.
The drafting of the document, though, will remain the responsibility of EFSA’s working group experts.
