Since leaving the EU, the UK has continued to shape its own regulatory framework through agencies like the Food Standards Agency (FSA) and the Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (DEFRA). From novel food approvals and allergen labeling updates to pesticide standards and import controls, UK food laws are diverging in key areas.
