Dear Dawn,
I just did a quick search on Europa's search engine using
"risk assessment" and found a stack of reports, most of
which are fairly specific and long but may be of use. The
most relevant seems to be
First report on the harmonisation of risk assessment procedures
http://europa.eu.int/comm/food/fs/sc/ssc/out83_en.pdf
which is over 170 pages long.
Hope this helps
