Sustavi zaÅ”tite hrane kao odgovor na potencijalni teroristiÄki Äin putem hrane
Terrorist attacks on critical infrastructures can cause problems to a national stability and functioning. Food and water supply chains are some of the most important infrastructures, and it is the countryās (governmentās) obligation to provide sufficient quantities of food and water to its population. Intentional food contamination can, among other motives, originate from an act of terrorism (with political or ideological motives) with the aim of causing fear (terror) among people. Food defence systems can help assess vulnerabilities, determine mitigation strategies for terrorist attack, estimate risks, and prevent a terrorist attack. Risk assessment and prevention also include control over the production and distribution of potential chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear (CBRN) agents or their related materials. When a terrorist attack occurs, rapid and organised response is essential in terms of determining the type of agent used, managing the diseased, ensuring the functioning of the food and water supply, and the recovery of the infrastructure system under attack. Food defence planning as part of a food counterterrorism strategy should include considerations regarding the global food market and the fact that ingredients are supplied from all over the world (vendor certificates). Preventing terrorist attacks on sources of food and water is a far better option than crisis management once an attack had already been committed, but governments should have a response to any scenario.Potencijalni teroristiÄki napad na kritiÄne infrastrukture može prouzroÄiti problem za stabilnost i funkcioniranje države. Opskrbni lanci hranom i vodom važne su državne infrastrukture, stoga država ima obvezu osigurati dovoljne koliÄine hrane i vode svom puÄanstvu. Namjerno trovanje hrane kazneno je djelo koje nastaje teroristiÄkim Äinom (politiÄki i ideoloÅ”ki motivi) ili izazivanjem straha (terora) meÄu ljudima. Sustavi zaÅ”tite hrane mogu pomoÄi pri procjeni ranjivosti, odreÄivanju strategija ublažavanja teroristiÄkoga napada te pri procjeni rizika i sprjeÄavanju rizika od teroristiÄkoga napada. U procjenu i sprjeÄavanje rizika pripada i kontrola prometa i proizvodnje potencijalnih kemijskih, bioloÅ”kih, radioloÅ”kih i nuklearnih (KBRN) agensĆ¢ ili srodnih materijala u državi i izvan nje. Kada se teroristiÄki napad dogodi, bitan je brz i organiziran odgovor države u smislu odreÄivanja vrste koriÅ”tenog agensa, zbrinjavanja oboljelih, nastavka funkcioniranja opskrbe hranom i vodom nakon napada te oporavka napadnutoga sustava. Planiranje zaÅ”tite hrane kao dio strategije za borbu protiv terorizma hranom odnosno agroterorizma treba ukljuÄiti razmatranje globalnoga lanca opskrbe sastojcima hrane koja se nabavlja diljem svijeta (proizvoÄaÄki certifikati). Prevencija teroristiÄkoga napada na hranu bolji je izbor nego upravljanje kriznim dogaÄajem (poÄinjeni napad), ali država bi trebala imati spreman odgovor na sve opcije
