Research On the Key Issues of the Legal Liability Ladder for Food Safety
Food safety legal liability ladder is an important way to solve the rationalization of legal liability in the field of food safety,which can improve the level of food safety governance more effectively.At present,there are some problems in the poor connection between legal liability and execution,such as the lack of flexibility in the amount of punitive damages,the unequal setting of criminal liability,and the lack of operability in blindly setting legal liability.The principle of legal clarity and the principle of proportionality should be followed to realize the ladder of legal liability for food safety.The criminal legislation should coordinate the object,subject and qualification punishment of crimes against food safety with the administrative law,and the fine should be converted into a fine.We will lower the minimum level of administrative punishment and make the gradient of administrative responsibility clear.We will increase the flexibility of punitive compensation standards and set the upper limit of the amount of punitive damages.We will increase the level of punishment for dereliction of duty in food and drug supervision.
