1 Country of Origin Labelling Oliver Hamilton Food Labelling Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) UK
2 Background: National Administrative Landscape Split between food information (Defra) food safety information (FSA); and nutrition labelling (Department of Health) England legislation enforcement Amend some UK legislation
3 EU FIC Scope EU FIC Regulation - large technical Regulation covers several issues including: Mandatory nutrition declaration and voluntary front of pack nutrition labelling; Ingredients and nutrition labelling of alcoholic drinks; Provision of information for non-prepacked foods; Clarity of food labels and minimum font size; Labelling of vegetable oil including palm oil; Labelling of engineered nano-materials; Quantity labelling; Country of origin labelling; Labelling and information on allergenic ingredients.
4 Alcohol Labelling Country of Origin Ingredients listing Nutritional labelling
5 Introduction Why origin labelling in the Food Information to Consumers UK industry voluntary principles Changes to the current system European Commission will report on further extending mandatory country of origin labelling
6 Priority for Ministers Giving more information to consumers Public interest Clearly identify UK produce Support growth
7 Industry Principles Clear and meaningful to consumers Positive step from industry, demonstration of commitment Defra supports voluntary measures Fewer changes will be needed as part of FIC
8 What the Regulation says Fresh and frozen meat Article 26(2) Voluntary origin claims Article 26 (3) Will apply from 13 th December 2014, with a transitional period
9 What the Commission is doing Implementing Acts by 13 th December 2013: Sufficient Declaration of Origin Specific Member State or non-eu country EU or non-eu A smaller administrative area Defining Origin Where the animal was born Where the animal was reared Where the animal was slaughtered Customs origin fattening prior to slaughter
10 The Different Considerations (1) Farming Supporting British produce against misleading claims Approaching each sector individually Recognition of British origin Animal welfare
11 The Different Considerations (2) Meat processors Proportionate costs Re-organisation of working lines At the slaughterhouse At the factory Re-labelling as necessary
12 The Different Considerations (3) Retailers Ability to market their product Unnecessary information codes Transitional difficulties Implications of price increases Supporting British produce
13 The Different Considerations (4) Consumers More and meaningful information Consumers interest Willingness to pay
14 Voluntary information Flags More specific geographical regions More detailed information on the life of the animal
15 Voluntary Origin Commission Obligations Status of draft proposals Concerns
16 European Commission Reports Commission must submit reports to the European Parliament and Council: By 13 th December 2013 Meat used as an ingredient By 13 th December 2014 Meat not otherwise covered by the regulation Milk Milk used as an ingredient in dairy products Unprocessed foods Single ingredient products Ingredients that make up more than 50% of a food
17 And then th December 2016: Evaluation of mandatory country of origin labelling or place of provenance for fresh, chilled and frozen meat from swine, sheep, goats and poultry
18 Revised enforcement approach Changes to the current system Non-criminal (where no immediate risk of harm) Civil penalties (improvement notices) Appeals through First Tier Tribunals
