The Food and Drug Administration will promote a food-safety liability insurance program in high-risk industries, such as those involving dairy and meat products, to help improve supervision, an official said.

According to a draft amendment to the Food Safety Law reviewed last week by the top legislature, the country will encourage the establishment of such an insurance program and urge more food production enterprises to take part in liability insurance plans.

Xu Jinghe, director of legal affairs for the China Food and Drug Administration, said at a seminar on the new food-safety law on Wednesday that authorities will promote compulsory liability insurance among food production companies in some areas.
