ILSI Europe held a 1 day Workshop in Brussels on 15 July 1996 at which experts described the US approach to indirect additive exposure assessment (T. C. Brown, Keller and Heckman, Belgium), food consumption patterns in Europe (M. J. Gibney, University of Dublin, Ireland), the collection of European statistics for food packaging materials usage (M. Palmer, Maurice Palmer Associates Ltd, UK) and the way in which available information might be used to propose the use of food consumption factors in European food packaging regulations (L. Castle, Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, UK). This report summarizes the above presentations and draws together the conclusions of this expert group. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
