• A federal judge has told the Food and Drug Administration it has broken the law by being too slow on food safety regulations. The 2010 Food Safety Modernization Act required the FDA to write new rules for seven areas of food production by last July. The FDA claims that timeline was aggressive given the complexity of the job. But Reuters reports the U.S. district judge sided with the two non-profits that sued the FDA. She ordered the agency to work with the Center for Food Safety and the Center for Environmental Health on a timetable. The FDA has finished some of the rules, but they are at the White House awaiting approval. (Reuters)
