EFFL 2/14 – Consumer Protection, Food Labelling and Food Safety

The European Food & Feed Law Review – EFFL ’s latest issue opens with two engaging pieces dealing both with consumer protection. While the first one is devoted to the regulation of online food shopping in light of the EU Consumer Rights Directive and the Food Information Regulation, the second article addresses the question of which behavioural drivers need to be considered when designing “smart” food safety regulations. Subsequent contributions feature an interpretation working tool for food extracts with colouring properties and their labelling requirements, as well as an overview of the German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment’s “EU Food Safety Almanac”, which explains how food safety is implemented within the Member States of the EU.

As usual our country reports (Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Italy, Spain and Norway), recent notifications and new publications keep you abreast on the latest developments in the food law world.

P.S.: Registration is already open for our Seminar on Controls in the Food Industry: What’s New and How to Be Prepared? this September in Brussels.
