Abstract
Until recently, the introduction of novel foods into the EU market has been primarily governed by Regulation (EC) No 258/97. The solutions provided for in this legislative act have been criticised. Consequently, as of 1 January 2018, this act has been replaced by Regulation No. 2015/2283. The aim of the deliberations presented in this article is to answer the question whether and to what extent the new solutions actually facilitate the placing of novel foods on the EU market while ensuring at the same time a high level of protection of consumers’ health, life and economic interests. In the author’s opinion, Regulation No. 2015/2283 introduces many amendments aimed at facilitating the introduction of novel foods to the EU market, which also satisfy the above concerns. However, only the practice resulting from the application of the adopted solutions will determine the effectiveness of opening the EU food market to safe innovations.
