Consultation on fairer food labelling; (68 page(s), in English), (67 page(s), in Welsh)

This notification intends to make Members aware of a consultation on options to improve transparency and consistency around food labelling in the UK.

This consultation seeks views on proposals to improve and extend mandatory method of production labelling for both domestic and imported products, for all unprocessed pork, chicken and eggs and certain prepacked and loose minimally processed products containing pork, chicken or egg.

The consultation also seeks views and evidence on possible interventions that may improve consumer understanding of the origin of certain foods, including how and where origin information is displayed, and on which products origin information should be mandatory.

Members are invited to look at the consultation and submit comments through the consultation process if they are interested. The next steps will be determined following a review of consultation responses.
