The introduction of the Provision of Food Information to consumers regulations 2011 will mean that from December 2014 allergen information will have to be provided on all food (whether sold pre packed or loose).
The regulations introduce two main requirements
- Allergens must be highlighted in the ingredient lists of packaged foods.
- Allergen information must now be available for ‘loose foods’
Local authority enforcement officers will audit allergen control measures when carrying out inspections of catering premises.
Food Allergy Course
The following are best practice guidelines:
