Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) has extended the deadline for submissions of opinions on the Energy Labeling of alcoholic beverages by 3 weeks.
The scope of the proposal is limited to beverages containing alcohol that are packaged, required to bear a label for sale in Australia and New Zealand and currently exempt from the requirement to be labelled with a NIP. These beverages are:
- Standardised alcoholic beverages e.g. Beer, wine.
- Beverages containing no less than 0.5% alcohol by volume (abv) that are not standardised alcoholic beverages.
