20th February 2009, 10:24am

The Food Standards Agency has published the results of its latest mini survey, which is conducted on a quarterly basis monitoring changes in consumer attitudes.

A sample of 2,097 UK adults were interviewed in December 2008 for this latest wave of tracking research.

The results show that confidence in the food safety measures of all organisations significantly increased from the previous tracking survey in September 2008, with 60% of respondents feeling confident about actions being taken to protect health.

The number of people who stated that they were confident in the role of the FSA increased from 61% to 64%.

There were significant declines in the percentage of people concerned about specific food issues, such as food prices, and levels of salt and fat in food.
