Priority action A-011-26 assesses the levels of phosphoric acid and phosphates in selected food groups that make a significant contribution to phosphate intake. In addition, checks are carried out to ensure that the use and labelling of the food additives comply with food law requirements. The data collected contribute to improving the data basis for exposure assessment and the ongoing evaluation of this group of food additives at European level.

118 samples were analysed, none of which were found to be non-compliant.
