With regard to GMO foods, Brexit etc., part of the EPA's remit is monitoring. Has the EPA had any role in getting Brexit-ready in terms of protecting our food chain and its integrity? Is that part of its job? I refer to the risk of hormone beef entering our system, resulting in the subsequent excretion of hormones into the water table, as with antibiotics. What sort of role has the EPA had in preparing for Brexit and the protection of our food supply chain?
