Improved Allergen Labelling Becomes Law to Protect Consumers in Scotland
Scotland
Mar 07, 2021
New legislation, which will require food businesses in Scotland to include the product name and full ingredients, including allergen information on pre-packed for direct sale (PPDS) foods has been laid in Parliament today (11 February 2021).
The new legislation will improve information about allergens and other ingredients in food packed in advance, mainly at the same place from which itâs sold, before being offered to consumers.
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.
