In order to thoroughly implement the spirit of the provincial on-site meeting on streamlining administration and delegating power, maximize convenience for production enterprises, and better promote the development of the food industry, the relevant matters concerning further deepening the reform of the province's food production licensing approval system are hereby announced as follows:Өгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
I. Implement the “Integration of Multiple Certificates into One”
The current method of issuing license certificates according to product categories, under which enterprises producing multiple categories of products are required to apply for multiple certificates, shall be adjusted to approval and certification based on the production entity, with a single license certificate uniformly issued to the same production enterprise. Where a newly established enterprise simultaneously applies for multiple certificates, a one-time review and one-time certificate issuance shall be implemented.Өгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
II. Adjust Licensing InspectionӨгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
Simplify the licensing inspection for newly established enterprises. The current method, under which enterprises separately apply during the licensing approval process and the approval department separately organizes licensing inspection, shall be adjusted to the method of “independent inspection by enterprises, self-declaration (before products are placed on the market after obtaining certification), and online public announcement.” Licensing inspection for certificate renewal enterprises shall be abolished. Unless otherwise provided by the State, the designation of licensing inspection institutions shall be abolished, and enterprises may independently entrust qualified institutions to conduct licensing inspection.Өгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
III. Abolish the Supplementary Page of the LicenseӨгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
The supplementary page of the food production license shall be abolished; a production licensing certification mechanism shall be established that is based primarily on the license certificate and combines the license certificate with online public announcement (the scope of products approved for production and sale). Where an enterprise needs written proof of the scope of products approved for production and sale, it may print it itself online.Өгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
IV. Simplify the Review Procedures for Enterprises Adding New Products (Additional Items)Өгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
Where an enterprise adds a new food category and the licensing conditions such as production processes, equipment, and facilities have not changed, it may apply for exemption from on-site review. The license certificate already obtained by the enterprise shall not be altered.Өгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
V. Improve the Method for Acceptance Inspection of Rectification of Enterprise Production ConditionsӨгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
Adjust the current method of conducting re-inspection and acceptance of enterprise rectification items during the licensing approval process before issuing the license. Within one month after the enterprise obtains certification, the regulatory department responsible for approval work within its jurisdiction shall organize acceptance inspection. The acceptance inspection work shall be carried out concurrently with the post-certification review inspection of the enterprise.Өгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
VI. Fully Implement Electronic License CertificatesӨгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
Establish a license certificate system based primarily on electronic certificates and supplemented by paper certificates. Enterprises shall obtain electronic certificates through the method of “instant notification by the electronic system and enterprise download online at any time.” That is, after the licensing decision is made, the licensing management system shall immediately send a mobile phone text message notification to the enterprise's handling personnel, and the enterprise may log in to the official website of the Liaoning Provincial Food and Drug Administration to download the electronic certificate itself. Where an enterprise does not have internet access conditions, it may download the certificate on-site or nearby at any level of food and drug regulatory department (including township regulatory agencies), without restriction by administrative divisions; electronic certificates and paper certificates have the same legal effect.Өгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
VII. Fully Implement Independent Printing of Paper Certificates by EnterprisesӨгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
Stop implementing the certificate issuance method of ”printing blank certificates by higher-level departments, transmitting certificates level by level, printing certificates, signing and sealing, notifying enterprises, and enterprises collecting certificates from the approval department.“ Enterprises shall obtain paper certificates through the independent printing method of ”instant notification by the electronic system and enterprise printing online at any time“ (the ”three-step" printing method). According to the principle of voluntariness, enterprises may print and obtain paper certificates in the same manner as obtaining electronic certificates, or may directly print from the downloaded electronic certificate. Ordinary printers and ordinary printing paper (A4 size) shall be used for printing paper certificates. Certificates printed independently by enterprises and certificates printed by food and drug regulatory departments have the same legal effect.Өгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
VIII. Strengthen Online Public Announcement of Food Production Licensing InformationӨгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
Establish an online public announcement system for food production licensing information in Liaoning Province (located on the official website of the Provincial Food and Drug Administration). Promptly announce the original electronic certificates of certified enterprises and other licensing information; announce in a timely manner the scope of products approved for production and sale by enterprises; announce in a timely manner the review and acceptance status of enterprise rectification items concerning production conditions. The general public may at any time consult the relevant circumstances of an enterprise's production license through this system or by scanning a QR code with a mobile phone. Strengthen credit constraints on enterprises. Where an enterprise conceals true circumstances or commits fraud in its own online public announcement, it shall be dealt with according to law, publicly exposed, and reported to relevant departments.Өгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
IX. Reduce the Time Limit for Licensing Approval
By implementing the “Integration of Multiple Certificates into One,” adjusting licensing inspection, improving electronic certificates, strengthening enterprise credit constraints, and other methods, further simplify approval matters, improve approval efficiency, and compress the licensing approval time limit from the current 60 working days to 20 working days.Өгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
X. Strengthen the Effective Connection Between the Certification Process and Post-Certification SupervisionӨгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
Strengthen the effective connection between the certification process and post-certification supervision. Within one month after an enterprise obtains certification (including certificate renewal), the regulatory department responsible for approval work shall organize a review inspection of the enterprise: inspect the acceptance status of rectification of the enterprise's production conditions; conduct spot checks of ex-factory inspection reports of other products; and conduct supervisory sampling inspections of products as circumstances require. Where rectification is unqualified or sampling inspection results are unqualified, it shall be dealt with seriously according to law and publicly announced to society through the online public announcement system. Within one year after an enterprise obtains certification, the provincial, municipal, and county regulatory departments shall conduct random spot checks on the products it has placed on the market. Where an enterprise has been certified for more than one year, the municipal and county regulatory departments shall incorporate it into the regulatory plan of their region and implement routine supervision.Өгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
This announcement shall take effect as of May 15, 2015.Өгүүлэл нь ...-аас авсанFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/mn/11531/
