4. How can knowledge transfer contribute to a well-performing SFSC community regarding the role of legislation? Solution: There exist already various institutions with an offer of courses and training programmes for capacity building for SFSCs. Additionally IT-based solutions on the basis of smart phones with a focus on understandable content (short questions, short answers) should be developed.
5. How can legislation help to lower the financial burden on SFSC’s with respect to taxation, control fees, investments, inspection contributions, private quality assurance schemes etc.? Solution: Decrease the number of inspections (e.g. inspections of live animal + meat inspections) concerning food legislation. Another (national) option could be a flatrate for taxation.
