A Food Standards Agency survey to find out whether chemicals from plastics in contact with food are getting into the food has found no instances of the chemicals exceeding legal safety limits. The safety limits for these chemicals take account of the amount people have over a lifetime to ensure they will suffer no long-term health effects. The next phase of this work is already under way to find out if other types of plastics used in food packaging also comply with the law. Further results will be reported when available.
