Nuclear disaster in Japan

Berlin / Munich. The consumer organisation foodwatch and the Environment Institute Munich eV have criticised the information policy of the federal government on food safety after the nuclear disaster in Japan. Federal Consumer Protection Minister Ilse Aigner has for days talked about "enhanced control measures" and "special protection standards" - but she does not inform the public about the fact that the EU-wide limits ​​for the radioactive contamination of foodstuffs from the affected areas in Japan have been increased over the weekend.
