The Conference will acknowledge the work of the committee and submission of the final committee report.
Public Health Significance
During the 2012 Biennial Meeting, Issue 2012-II-035 resulted in the following charge:
The Conference recommends that a committee be created to study how health department inspection data can be collected more uniformly through the use of standardized formats to enhance public health. Utilizing Food Code Annex 7, Form 3-A (Food Establishment Inspection Form) and Guide 3-B (Instructions for Marking the Food Establishment Inspection Report, Including Food Code References for Risk Factors/Interventions and Good Retail Practices) as the starting point, the committee is charged to consider:
(1) Uniform violation categories/types, by utilizing the FDA inspection form,
(2) Consistent scoring methodology, and
(3) The best means of electronically collecting, analyzing and sharing inspection data.
These activities should be undertaken with the intent of eventually creating a national database to warehouse inspection data from contributing states, local jurisdictions and other sources.
The committee will report on its findings, along with implementation recommendations at the 2014 CFP Biennial Meeting.
The committee is submitting their final report of its findings to the 2014 Biennial Meeting as charged.
Recommended Solution: The Conference recommends...
acknowledgement of the Standardized Data Collection and Electronic Reporting of Inspections Committee Final Report and the IT Subcommittee Report;
thanking the committee members for their work; and
disbanding the committee as its charges are complete.
