PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Food: Labelling (9 October 2018)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, when his Department expects to publish the findings of the review of food safety and labelling laws.

Asked by:
Janet Daby (Labour)

Answer

We are considering at pace all the evidence, including new cases as they arise, to help inform the action needed to strengthen rules on allergen labelling. Longer term, we have an opportunity to review all of food labelling when the UK has left the EU so that consumers have the information they need to have full confidence in the food they buy, and we are committed to doing that.
