FSS UPDATE ON NATASHA'S LAW

Examples of PPDS foods include sandwiches placed into packaging by the food business and sold from the same premises, wrapped deli counter goods such as cheese and meats, and boxed salads placed on a refrigerated shelf prior to sale.

What information is required?
You must include the name of the food and the ingredients list with any of the 14 allergens required to be declared by law emphasised within it, if they are ingredients of the food. These need to be in line with the legal requirements that apply to naming the food and listing ingredients.

We have had input with FSS on the guide for the food industry and they have develop a comprehensive guidance document to support businesses in implementing these changes. This guidance outlines the information that must be supplied, examples of labels and best practice advice.
