Consistent with our recommendations, the Departments of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Business and Professional Regulation, and Health have taken steps to improve the performance and financial self-sufficiency of their food safety programs. Two of the agencies have also made or are planning improvements to increase public access to inspection data. While the agencies have discussed options to more consistently report performance data, they have not yet agreed upon common protocols.
