In this third and final part of this exclusive NutraIngredients podcast with Professor Albert Flynn, chair of European Food Safety Authority’s Scientific Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies (NDA), explains how rejected article 13.1 can be resubmitted to the process.

Professor Flynn explains why dossiers originally submitted under article 13.1 of the health claims regulation may fare better under article 13.5, where NDA-applicant dialogue potential is greater.

“Many of the claims on the article 13 list could easily have been submitted also as applications under article 13.5 and indeed quite a number of them were,” ​Professor Flynn said.
