Proposed changes to the Food Safety (Sampling and Qualifications) (Scotland) Regulations 2013
FSS intend to amend the Food Safety (Sampling and Qualifications) (Scotland) Regulations 2013 to accommodate the recognition of qualifications from Switzerland. This follows the signing of a Recognition of Professional Qualifications (RPQ) Agreement between the UK and Switzerland in June 2023, which will allow people who gained a professional qualification in one country to work in the other (subject to immigration rules), without having to fully requalify.
