Minister of Health Dr Abdulla Khaleel on Thursday said that all food imported into the country will need to undergo mandatory testing to ensure safety once the new Food Safety Bill comes into effect.
In a press conference held at the Ministry, Minister Khaleel said that Maldives Food and Drug Authority (MFDA) stands to gain many powers once President Dr Mohamed Muizzu ratifies the bill which has now been passed by parliament.
