The survey covers five main areas:
- awareness of the FSA and its responsibilities
- trust in the FSA
- food-related concerns
- awareness of hygiene standards in eating establishments
- awareness of initiatives or schemes concerning hygiene standards
The survey has monitored people’s attitudes since 2001. In spring 2010, research was carried out to help redevelop the tracker survey methodology and questions, so the survey now runs on a biannual basis. The report of this research and a follow-up report, which tested the revised questions can be viewed in the ‘see also’ section below.
The latest wave of the redeveloped tracker survey, carried out in May 2012, can be found in the first link below.
